Breaking up the old footings

It looks like there is a tool for every job.....and Fernando knows how to use all of them.  LOL  

  Today he was operating some kind of a hammer that could break up those huge concrete footings into smaller pieces to be hauled away.  After digging out the footings, they carefully piled up as much as they could.




Then this big hammer type of machine punched away and broke up the big blocks.  Watch the two very short videos.  They'll give you an idea of what it sounded like.





By the end of the day it looks like mission is accomplished.  Ready for the trucks to haul it away.  At least "I think so".  Will have to check on it tomorrow morning and see what happens next.

Say Adios to the flowers.  Time for them to go.
