Stamping room, New Orleans mint.

 

Working at a manufacturing job in full 1800s neck-to-toe layered clothing. In New Orleans. Well before the advent of air conditioning.

How our ancestors survived that, I'll never know...

 

They didn't know any better........you and me would die.

 

Different times.......your right Greenie we couldn't make it back then.

 

Just last week my wife went to a BBQ hosted by an 85 year old man that retired in his seventies and since then has hand built two larges house AND a museum as well as landscaping the places finer than a pro ballfield…..I work an 8-10 hour day in my air conditioned office and all I want to do is go lie down….. I’m such a wimp.

 

That's a fellow I'd like to meet, Randy. *

 

Hey, it gives me an explanation as to buying a slew of tools and stuff. 60 Bags of concrete and 100 2x4x8s , Rebar, Nail guns, grinders, etc. Of course it's too hot to work now unless you build a mausoleum.

 

Thanks. Took a picture of that

 

Some people just can’t sit
