Goblins, Snow, Mountains and Fun

It's like a cathedral.

Let's Call It

Another summer has come to a close. For me, it was a rough summer. Almost no traveling, early mornings, hot days with lots of work but little to do. I spent hours upon hours in the cab of my mixer this summer. More than I spent at home to be honest. But I got through it and came out the other side with the usual sense of accomplishment. To get an idea of what my summer was like, I spent most of it driving around in good ole truck 44. We got to know each other pretty intimately, what after pulling a handful of all nighters together, more than a dozen 12 hour work days and even one 18 hour work day. Here are a few pics so we can all get the idea.

She's a dirty old gal.

That's how I make the concrete go!

The view from my office.

This is what my day looks like much of the time. 

Washing it out at the end of every work day.

I hate sidewalks. So hard not to hit people.

But somedays, it's all worth it for one beautiful moment.
