Zeus decided to stop by and see how we were doing on his son’s
tower. He dropped some rain on us just
so we knew he was watching, but we must have performed adequately as there was
no thunder or lightning. It was just a
sprinkle really; we could see rain pouring from clouds in 3 of the 4 directions
surrounding us though. Curiously we did
not experience another drop of water, wind—well, that’s another story. The Greek deity must have grown bored
shielding us from the storm and let loose some of the elements to kick the
difficulty up a notch. There were more
than a couple of instances where we had to brace ourselves on an attached
railing or secured plank. Perhaps Zeus
was just getting a little too into Kelly’s Trampled By Turtles playlist because
the gusts matched the tunes harmoniously. Anyhow, we now have 6 flights completed and a
start on the 7th with 1 day to go. Now
that we have found our rhythm I’m confident we’re going to see this project
through to completion.
Working on the
tower has made me a happy man—I’m really hoping to land a similar task before
my service term is over. For now though
I’m going to hit the showers as I am long overdue and lucky enough to have one
available. Talk to you all later!
