Where the Boy Works
Each day. Don't these remind you of the first scene of the second Crocodile Dundee movie? He is right down there by the East River pumping concrete grout to stabilize the ground.
Bless him. I never discount the hard work that maintains the very structure of civilization.
We take so much for granted.
It must be such an amazing experience for him. The contrast between the pastoral beauty of Northview and the dynamic bustling geometry of New York City.
Glad to hear he's doing well at work- and I hope you are doing ok at home! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteTo stabilize the ground?? Is the ground failing in that area? Hmm.
ReplyDeleteGlad he's got a good job. :) This weather makes it great to be in construction in December, eh?
Ahhh, another farm kid gone to the big city. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteMerry Day After Christmas to you and yours, 3C.
Jeff, Thanks! Merry Christmas to you too
ReplyDeleteRebecca, water from the river moving in. I guess compared to here it is really nice and warm down there.
Jeffro, a shame isn't it? Thanks for the good wishes, the same back at you.

Wow.
