Every now and then something unusual happens in Timmins that raises the level of conversation at Tim Hortons.
This is summer road construction season and so its not unusual to see large pieces of construction machinery around town. Except one poor fellow decided to move his excavator off the road and got too close to one of the swamy areas near the old Hollinger Mine tailings. Schlurrrp! He sure had that sinking feeling Thursday. They had to build a new section of road to rescue the excavator... they got it out Friday afternoon.

Wow Len, quite the story. Not too often do we see these heavy equipments in peril. Glad you were able to capture this story and share it. ;)
