Doth Mine Eyes Deceive Me?

After what has felt like an eternity, the clouds have parted and the heavens have revealed their beauty, for now.


The family and I ran out to the Sustainable Urban Farm as fast as we could to snap this shot.  The temperature dropped about five degrees in the short time we were there, which makes me think we are not out of the woods yet.


Earlier today, I met up with my good buddy Ardavan and we hit up a couple construction sites.  The first one we went to had a ton of cinder blocks, but the foreman didn't like us.  I think he was in the middle of something and was in a bad mood.  No worries, we'll check back when the sun is shinning and maybe have Ardavan whistle the theme song to "Happy Days".  That might put the foreman in the giving mood.  Heh heh.



After hitting the proverbial brick wall, pun totally intended, we headed over to a different site.  We went to the building I had hit last week to see if there was anything else to save from the landfill.  My pal Manny was manning the helm and he remember me!  Yes!  He let us drive down into the bowels of the subterranean garage and have at it.  There was so much plywood.  We loaded six 24 inch x 72 inch panels, a ten foot long 4 inch PVC pipe, and a bunch of small, but long metal pipes and bolts.  All in all, it was a very good day.  I'll be able to build three more 4ft x 4ft planter boxes.  Now all I have to worry about is finding more dirt.


It's only been an hour since I took the above photograph.  Weather update... torrential downpour!
