The ground was frost free so ditching took place.  With that there is fill dirt to dump someplace else. We did ditching near MP 3.0 (first picture).
Had help from Tom W. and Rod N  (2nd and 3rd picture).  I worked on ditching by MP 2.0 and got a few loads out (next 3 pictures).
  I decided it was time to attack the bad ties on the turntable at Clear Lake.   The next three pictures show the turntable, Brayden pointing to the new ties and a small stack of bad ones removed.  The next two show Brayden helping with tie replacement at Maples.  The curve has sunk and needed lifting but the ties were so bad, they needed replacing first.  Brayden is attaching the ties and in the foreground are 3 ties waiting on him.   - -   Tom
