Sinkhole? Really?

Postby Amoebas » Mon Jun 11, 2012 10:36 pm

Get home from work, park the car in the garage, walk down the driveway to the mailbox and I spy a black circular piece of trash. I go to pick it up when I find it's not trash - it's a hole.

An almost perfectly round hole with a 5 inch diameter. I look inside the hole and it just goes down in a circular tunnel. I can't see the bottom! I grab a tape measure and flashlight - it's 4 feet deep and just so, so... round.

Preliminary research says it's no big deal - just fill with sand and top off. Advance research will have me calling a professional tomorrow.

But it's still just so creepy how round it is.

This is my favorite local sinkhole ever, the infamous Sinkhole of '86:

5" diameter? That's not a sinkhole.

I was once a field tech for a geotechnical engineering and consulting company, I would call someone like that.

If you want to slip Amoebas your digits, just do it. No need for pretense.
