January 11, 2005:
Working down the Pearman and Grace ramps
Early morning and Bob McCabe, Jackie and Ted are already at it - the worksite

Jackie with his shear in the biting position

The bases of the Pearman supports will become the foundation of the Mt.
Pleasant observation pier - a before look

From below - an early morning view of the last two girder sections of the
Pearman ramp

and a view from the southern side

and a view from underneath the Pearman roadway

Walking over to the Grace - here is Jackie in his launching position

and a view of the Mt. Pleasant observation foundation

Looking over the side, there is the little Testa that could - pushing
a barge with Ken, Phillip and Bret - on their way to load D-27

and soon, walking up the Grace ramp, the worksite

with Speedy cutting a pair of girders and Richie cautiously looking on

and a pull from Roy and his excavator

and the girder pair is slowly removed

onto the roadway

and finally resting on the roadway

Looking back at the Pearman - nice sunrise and reflections

with Ted (not Tad) setting up for concrete cutting

and Pio smiling -
