Here's a panorama of this mornings project. Near Corporation Beach in Dennis, MA...

A little Beach front job in Dennis MA.

The project runs from an existing stone revetment on the west, to an existing revetment and groin on the east... It also includes an "As-Built" of the western most revetment.

The heavy equipment operators were a couple of nice guys. They even shut down so I could get the shots around the machines.

So, this was about 600' of beach, top and bottom of bank, plus ground shots behind the bank...Maybe 200 shots... that, plus hit the bounds, tie in two Benchmarks and we're out of there in three hours....

Not a bad day, snow was nice, no wind, few people 🙂

Oh, and I am aware that the rod is not plumb in the first picture !!

I figured that the rod was plumb but the cameraman wasn’t.

was going to try to get to Dutch tomorrow and Atka on Thursday...weather has been
unstable.. if I have to take a fishing boat to Dutch it could screw things up. But Thursday at the earliest weather permitting...
