Bulldozer doing its job

Bulldozer doing its job
And still another shot from that E6 roll I put through my faulty vfr

camera (an Agfa maybe . . .) in 1977 at Postville. I'm a little

mystified by my poor framing here. What I like best (now, nearly

forty years after the fact) is the little girl running through the

foreground. If I had framed the picture to include her, I would have

gotten the building chopped at the peak as I got. If I had framed for

the building's peak, I'd have lost her. What was I thinking?

Mystery.



This bulldozer and a pickup truck were the only vehicles besides

snowmobiles and boats in Postville at the time. The bulldozer here is

tied to the old schoolhouse which was being moved away from the site

where we dug. It had pulled it off the site a few days earlier. The

school was on logs and rolled fairly easily. When we were finished

digging, the bulldozer came back and grubbed away a spot for a new

schoolhouse's foundation.
