The bongos did not stop until dawn. I reciprocated in kind with my pots and pans while cooking breakfast for the kids. I fed the bongo players as well when they rolled out at the crack of noon. No hard feelings. <br />As to the bands-I hear ya brother. normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04651902762232427335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5414957110325310952.post-65730687609429801942012-10-08T08:21:41.220-07:002012-10-08T08:21:41.220-07:00Interesting site Norm!

I took the job. It involved tearing down all the old mining buildings and building campsites. Tractors, bulldozers, chainsaws and explosives were my new friends. These people had deep pockets, the equipment was all new, like nothing I ever saw on the farm. The best part was the quarry, this was the early 70s, clothing was hit and miss for the swimmers. The smoke was on the water, the best summer job I ever had. The place is still going strong, google Nelson Ledges Quarry Park for a look see. normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04651902762232427335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5414957110325310952.post-37584731560570304472012-10-08T07:40:04.632-07:002012-10-08T07:40:04.632-07:00Good for you!
