Boy, I've been reading about the flooding in Calgary - we've vacationed often in Canada (mostly the eastern & western Provinces) - but did a week long trip to Alberta in the 90s - Jasper, Banff, Lake Louise, & Calgary. In fact, I'm in the midst of a BIG project scanning in family photos and numerous slides from our previous trips and have several that bring back fond memories of the beauty of the Canadian Rockies & the many lakes - below Lake Lousie & Moraine Lake -

Here's a crew out pressure cleaning the sewer lines in my neighbourhood. .

The water for the pressure cleaning system comes from a nearby fire hydrant.

They need two trucks to do this?

I like your signature. It makes me smile. I haven't seen it before, it seems to be new.

It is. I changed it yesterday, being inspired by something I said to my brother a few days ago.

Yes, the right hand truck has the machinery and hoses for the pressure cleaning. The left hand truck is basically a large vacuum cleaner, sucking up all the debris flushed out by the high pressure water jets from the other truck. BTW, there's actually a third truck several blocks away that's connected to the other end of the hose from the first truck.

I know that this was done in my village, too. Very rarely. I can't remember how many trucks were here. 1, perhaps 2, but certainly not 3.

Amazing photo Sci.....that must be so devastating for many!

Well my, these are beautiful photos of the lakes! You must have a good eye for it!

Also something I need to do to get my photos in order also. Just need to find the time!

What was this one for? What a long hose that must have been!

The hose runs through the sewer pipe that's being cleaned, there's probably several thousand feet of hose.

I like your signature too Samana, and your posts and.......hang on, someone at the door. They look like men with white coats, and one is holding what looks like a straight jacket.....
