I start sweating just from seeing pictures like this.
I can almost smell the asphalt. A familiar scene in summer Minnesota, but I don't mind the obstruction to construction when remodeling or repairs are done, esp. on our winter-ravaged roads.
My link to the portal for theme day photos does not work, hope you visit me anyway. That darn computer-voodoo is at work again!
Oh dear. I'm getting a headache from the odor! (Yes, I DO have an over-active imagination!)
What a great shot, that's a lot of action going on in small space Leif, nice to see workmen...working!!
Nice hot, steamy, day for this....
I guess this must get done frequently in your area because of all the snow and ice. Looks like a dirty job!
I used to see this a lot when I was a kid. One of my favorite types of construction. That roller looks like so much fun! Great photo for theme day :D
Nice capture today, Leif. I am all in favor of road repair. Winter does a mean job on the streets around here.
Hot work as summer approaches. I admire those guys.

Great post for June's theme! :)
I love those fumes from the asphalt...
Good shot !!
I hate that smell! LOL! Great entry on the theme, Leif.
Schön, dass Eagan Geld für die Sanierung von Straßen hat. Stuttgart hat leider nur sehr wenig Geld für so etwas. Dafür bekommen wir aber für mindestens 4.5 Milliarden Euro (es werden mehr, da können wir wetten) einen unterirdischen und untauglichen Bahnhof, den alte oder behinderte Menschen wohl nicht betreten können. Liebe Grüße aus Stuttgart. Stay on top - Oben bleiben.
I can almost smell the tar. I hate it. Great shot.
Thank you, John Loudon McAdam!
Jeg kan lukte asfalten helt til Stavanger!:)
Perfektes Bild für Themenday! Das Problem haben wir hier in Berlin auch. Viele Strassen sind broken from the strong winter. Ich habe so gelacht über Deine Kommentar. Ja ich spiele auch mit! Mit einen Bild was ich ausgegraben(exhumed)habe.
Schönen Abend für Dich!
Well I wish I could have photographed a scene like this one!
Hope you didn't get tar on your car! Glad those roads will ride more smoothly though.
I admire these workers because it cannot be nice in that smell or in the hot summer. Important job hey do.
Promise I will show you the finished café :)
All the best! Just now from Budapest :)
sorry could not write a single word right ;)
feels as if strength fights strength. a safe road ahead and a good new month.

I can smell that asphalt also. And yes it is interesting to see construction around the world.
That is a tough, smelly, and hot way to make a living. Great theme day photo.
Good theme day choice! Wouldn't to touch this stuff.
I like that smell!

Super photo, Leif, really showing us what is going on. Great atmosphere.
Great choice. The job, which I would not like to try.
This is really a great shot. Like it very much. Well done!
