working in the rain
saw this guy working on the house in the rain on my way home. I have no idea what he was doing. It was a bad day to be working outside so hopefully it was quick work.
You got to get it done..so you will be ready for the truly bad weather days. We are in a cold advisory here. Can't stay out for long and even then..dress in layers.
Hmmm...My guess? He's fixing a window leak or one that won't close all the way? I would take rain today instead of MINUS 45˚F weather. Schools and some businesses closed today. UGH! Diana
To go out in the rain it must have been an emergency repair. Perhaps the window was leaking? At first I thought your camera was at an angle, but looking more closely I suspect that driveway sloped down. Interesting slice of life photo, Bill.
That takes some dedication working in the rain isn’t easy on anyone. I wonder if he was doing repairs that couldn’t wait or just pushing to finish a project. Did it look like he was making good progress despite the weather?
Nice photo.
ReplyDeleteIt's cold out there.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Maybe his wife was mad at him and he was better outside!
ReplyDeleteHi Bill.
ReplyDeleteWeather or no weather, the work continues.
Greetings from Patricia.

ReplyDeleteSomeone has to get the job done :-) I am glad it wasn't me.
ReplyDeleteI hope this guy didn't catch a cold working outside in the rain, Bill. Great photo!
ReplyDeleteMust be serious enough to work in the rain.

ReplyDelete...Bill, it's just too cold to work outside here!
ReplyDeleteHope you were almost home with the ugly weather!
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for the workers out in the rain and bad weather.

Pretty miserable working conditions, yes.
ReplyDeleteMuch colder here, Bill. They're talking about a polar vortex for the weekend.
ReplyDeleteHe is doing some important work.
ReplyDeleteSafety Third There Mr Bill - Safety Third

That's what I call perseverance.

ReplyDeleteHopefully it was a fast fix, Bill.
ReplyDeleteThis old prairie boy likes to stay dry.

ReplyDeleteOh wow a very working guy
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at people who work outdoors in all weather!
ReplyDeleteGood shot of the man working in the rain, like you I can't for the life of me think what he would be doing.
ReplyDeleteTopsy-turvy is the best way.

ReplyDeleteI'm always impressed (or baffled) by people who work in all weather!
ReplyDeleteAparentemente, tem chovido e nevado muito em todo o mundo. Será que isso se deve ao aquecimento global?
