Stop in for a cup of coffee
We were getting ready to set off a shot one day at the quarry. We parked our personal vehicles near the equipment we operated and that area was right next to the quarry. All those vehicles had to be moved to an area across the yard from the quarry where we had to remain during the blast. Scalemaster left the scalehouse and everything. We set out there waiting for the powder monkey to do his thing, he was taking cover under one of the big haul trucks to set off the shot. Alvin sends his signal which was a long rope attached to the air horn on the haul truck :lol: As the horn blast ends I hear this rumble behind us all and look up to see 4 USN fighter jets heading right over us towards the quarry :eek: They were doing their terrain following thing under the radar and did it frequently right over us at the quarry. they were just barely past the pit when that shot went off. I know they had to feel it. Not even clear of the next ridge when the rocks started flying
