picture of one of the workers
Fernando
What is your favorite worker picture??

This one is of my two primary workers, Martin(half hidden) and Miguel, in late June '07 working on my roof. It also is the first day that the
"suspension bridge" of the wall that holds my passive solar windows is without a post support. It was attached to the small piece of plywood below
window.

He's the one Natalie. "Dancer's feet", I think it's called. The worker's feet in the first picture reminded me of it. It used to be one of my
favorites. The print looks much better.

Probably the delicate footsies of Tina Modotti.

Fernando is removing the beginning of a really awful tile job of another worker.

Loreto worker
Saw this worker while in Loreto last year. He was putting stucco above the window so he was moving side-to-side on his 'scaffolding'. He did finish
the job without falling off but it sure looked precarious.
I think the world is run by C- students.

Not a worker,
but another interesting scaffolding. OSHA approved?

One of my favorite episodes of a series I never missed, "The Dick Van Dyke Show" was where the couple somehow purchase a copy of "American Gothic"
with the two midwesterners smiling.
They have it appraised and it turns out that it was painted by the notorious copier of Grant Wood: Nathaniel Good.
"Only Nathaniel is .... no good", they're told.

American Gothic redos...
Good stuff about America's famous Midwest painting, Skipjack Joe. That tv show was a true comedy classic.
bajadock..you are right on.
edited so as not to further highjack this thread..and to stop me from laughing.

Well...don't know about that, vandy...but I did stay at a Holiday Express last night and threw a wiseguy out the second floor window who 'admired' my
middle-aged spread. Just kidding...of course.

Boy, oh boy,
in my days you didn't flock with wiseguys if you knew what was good for your health.
But, all kidding aside, when is the Sashimi ready so I can bring by those dog chips I so religeously dried for your chipping exercises.
