Great pic - and just think, today we have to warn people that their coffee is hot![emoji15]

Actually that picture was staged (read "faked"). But the old-time iron workers took insane risks. I've known many of them who said they couldn't go up and walk the iron without liquid courage. Lots then discovered they were alcoholics.

Afraid not... posed and staged but the pic is real.

Think I'll leave early tonight it's only 8:18 and 91 deg here in the desert but there's a few things to get done before bed. Tomorrow grocery day which means a trip to town and I do hate to do that but I gotta eat. Tried quiting but that didn't work out so well.

Anyway you folks drift on and keep the things that go bump in the night away and I'll get back in here tomorrow sometime. Nite all.
 
Life hasn't changed much just the faces, the names and the population. But think about it everyone who lived in the vertical buildings knew everyone like living in the small towns.

In these pics above I expect to see the bowery boys pop out any second.
