Trucker friend took a load of Cummins engine cores to Laredo which is on the Texas Mexico border. While he was waiting for his load home he got offered a quick cash job of moving a couple of porta cabins on a vegetable farm. He pulled along side the first one and a bunch of migrant worker surrounded the porta cabin as it was lifter with a small crane. Rattle snakes came zipping out from under it and the workers were chopping them up as fast as they could. Once the cabin was loaded he drove off refusing to strap it on and never got out of the truck until he was sure nothing was lurking in wait.

You never pick something up off the ground from the side closest to you here. Never... 2 years back I was removing cattle troughs from a farm. Couple of big browns under a few. Several years back we got a new neighbor. First experience with irrigation too. He was telling me one day about sticking his arm up a 6 inch terracotta irrigation pipe to clean it out. I told him he was insane... The amount of snakes we would get out of them after summer when we started autumn watering....pull the cup out and watch em wash out the other side..Even had one go up a pipe fully under water once. He was still there when I got the 12 gauge and waited for the old man to pull the cup out
Just because

It used to be. In the photo I am on the former seabottom, well on a dyke but hey.
Was once in Holland with someone driving alongside a big bank
I asked if it was a river on the other side and he said it was the sea
seemed abit scary realising we were below sea level

I have worked in the flevopolder for a good few years. I used to tell the bossman not to pee me off or I'd organise a bunch of contractors and dig a hole through the dykes.
Not the ones at the coast obviously as I 'd be fuucked aswell then, that and it is far to long a drive for me.
There is (or was) a pub at the agricultural college in the flevopolder with the name "bar 6 minus", as it was 6 meters below sealevel.

We think we are pretty fortunate compared to a lot of others. OH spotted in local paper that the Sally Bash (Salvation Army) were doing free Christmas lunches so we gave them 3 bags of spuds then offered to go in and peel them .That’s fantastic,well done
