Road Work, Construction, and the Start of School

Sunday, August 19, 2012. It's been a beautiful day. I grilled burgers, spent time with my family, and relaxed. Now it's time to see what I've got for this week's entry.


Resurfacing streets is routine. Looks like there's something bigger happening on South 4th Street. August 14, 2012.


The corner of South 4th and Main, looking east. There's more of that hole in the ground, below what's visible here. August 17, 2012.


Sinclair Lewis Avenue: fresh blacktop, plastic tags you can't see in this photo, showing where traffic markings should go. August 14, 2012.


Construction on south Main, across from the Hillcrest Motel, more or less. August 14, 2012.


There isn't an official 'rummage sale season,' but most of the activity seems to be between Memorial Day and Labor Day.. August 17, 2012.

The Sauk Centre Public Schools website, www.isd743.k12.mn.us, says that Open House is August 28, 6:00-8:00 p.m.; and that classes start September 4. The 28th is a week from Tuesday, so there's not much of summer vacation left.
