Last Garage

As Monkey-Man was doing his work, the garages were being knocked down. A few weeks earlier I saw car owners taking their cars and other possessions from the garages. I have no idea where they put them. Perhaps the car on the street and other things in a cellar. 

Then the machines moved in. One big machine with a large ‘thing’ at the end of the arm made short work of the roofs and walls. Before then, a number of men had taken off the asphalt covering and any wooden beams. They were separated for recycling.

Here you can see the the change in landscape, including the main machine.  In German it is called  ‘der Bagger’. My dictionary translates this as excavator, digger, earthmover. Interesting that I didn’t know the word in English and had to use a dictionary!
