Re: Corvette Museum
I see the usual group of white hats standing around looking into the hole this morning.

Re: Corvette Museum
At least we know they'll still be working on it when we get there in May.

Re: Corvette Museum
I'm really liking that third webcam. Best view in the house.
I just watched them lift a 20ft rod/poll and drop it into a small hole located 20ft from the sink hole. They lowered it in with a wrench attached half way up. Then backed the fork lift away. Then a guy calmly walked over and removed the wrench whereupon the poll dropped in the hole completely out of sight. Me thinks they are shoring up the area around the sink hole making it more stable. Below you can see the larger pipe. The small diameter pipe/rod was inserted inside the larger pipe. I estimate the small rod to be 20 - 30ft long.

Re: Corvette Museum
I think a 3rd cam would be better served over the hole, OPPOSITE the support column...
