8.08.07 Work Session


The station at Clydes which is where our work session will be today. Richard Sales is replacing a couple of ties at one of the switches near the station.
We brought 150 ties and Marty Pinkston is off to the side at an area that we just replaced a few. George Metts watches Neal Smith as he puts down new ballast at the ties we just replaced.
Dick Clark is digging out one of the bad ties and Neal is behind him putting down ballast. I wanted to get a picture of Edith Hacker working so this is how she posed....lesson #1 don't tell anyone you are taking their picture.
Caught Edith when she wasn't looking, pulling out more weeds. Back at the station near 5 p.m. I caught Clyde Bleil, Roger Harnish and Chan Bleil relaxing while waiting for supper to be served.
George Davidson and Karen Studd were relaxing before supper. A view of the crew that was growing in numbers as supper time approached on this very hot day with little breeze to cool you off.
The work party was smaller this year but we dug out and replaced the 150 ties before it got too dark and the mosquitos tried to carry you off.
