The women called road builder" like ants go to the river to look for pebbles to rebuild crumbling roads very often in this region of the Himalayas.
Les femmes qui construisent les routes appelées road builder;comme des fourmis vont à la rivière chercher des galets afin de reconstruire les routes qui s'écroulent tres souvent dans cette région de l'himalaya.
After Norfolk Southern Rock Train 62Q dropped off his cars at
Dunn Roadbuilders, he pulled down to Dragon Siding with light power to wye his train. NS 9849 (D9-44CW) NS 3647 (ET44AC) NS 1001 (SD70ACe) NS 4534 (AC44C6M) and NS 4214 (AC44C6M) was the power for this train.
Try to pronounce the Dutch word 'schaftwagentje'. It poses the same difficulties I guess as the name of a town called "Scheveningen'.
Anyway, roadbuilders, gardeners store their stuff in these kind of little wagons and have their coffee-or lunch breaks.
Ordinairy objects get very interesting when part of a lightpainting image and convey a special mood.

Some more shots of this rare beauty. This photo shows the natural habitiat of this bird as they live mostly on industrial sites and gas stations..... Like the pattern of the stones in the background (but I'm a roadbuilder myself).
Informational sign, trail marker, and road cut at the bottom of Slick Rocks. "U. S. Department of the Interior. Bureau of Land Management. Grey Mesa. A mountain sheep led advance explorers a thousand feet down the steep north slick-rock slope. Hole-in-the-Rock roadbuilders followed that route with wagons after considerable roadwork had been done. In the midst of a blizzard, the third child of the expedition was born to Mons Larson family. The boy was named John Rio."

Another vintage (1950s/60s?) jigsaw picked up on our travels. Again the colours are still bright and cheery, which is more than can be said for the subject matter! Beats me why the maker thought this would make a good subject for a jigsaw, but it is pretty typical of its time. Again complete, so all in all it provided a fun few hour's nostalgic puzzling.

When you approach a Cone Zone, don’t just see orange. Consider the faces behind the Cone Zone.
They are firefighters, paramedics and police officers. They are traffic controllers, road builders and maintenance workers. They are tow truck drivers, utility technicians and landscapers.
They watch our backs, come to our aid when we’re in need, and help keep our communities operating smoothly. Yet, all that stands between them and our vehicles are brightly coloured markers. Cones aren’t totally protecting them, though (although the bright little guys do their best). You are.
