Sinkhole, made whole

From Amanda, who provided the original WSB report on the water-pipe “sinkhole” that slowed things down on Avalon overnight and into the morning, as well as a morning update — here’s her final photo from above, showing the finishing touches:

Amanda says the water finally came back on too, after about 16 hours. (Utilities crews had to turn it off to stop the gusher that created the hole in the first place.)

    Looks like a nice little bicycle “kill zone” to me. Want to start a pool to see just how long the “temporary repair” is in place? I say the steel plate isn’t removed until after the first of the year (2008).

    Eddie, most of the future of the universe comes after the first of 2008…and you could be right.

    I guess I meant that to say 2009…….

Sorry, comment time is over.
