Green Tea and Jingle Trucks












I can't get enough of the jingle trucks, I'm going to look for some of those tassels and beads and bring them home to put on my car. I also noticed that the two trucks on the left have a sandal or shoe hanging from the bumper. I'm still looking for someone that knows the significance of that.
I went to the job sites today and got there about mid morning, tea time. Mike the fencing contractor invited us to join him for some green tea. That is Mike in the middle, still wearing his new clothes. He also offered us some hard candies, they were like lemon drops. Both the tea and the candy were good. The pots on the fire in the second picture are filled with green tea, they boil it right on the job site.
No OSHA standards in Afghanistan. They dig the holes with picks and shovels. The worker in the picture is wearing open toe sandals. I think he still has all of his toes.
I'll post pictures tomorrow of the asphalt plant and the asphalt crew. They paved about 300 feet today.

  1. You might want to check with Sam before bringing home tassels and beads for "your/his car"
