That’s the real desert.

Yeah, most vistors to the job site said the place looked like the moon.

Probably not much in the way of AC

Heck, we were 60 miles to the nearest paved road. It was over 100 miles past that to reach anything you would call a town.

One of the coolest things about places like maps.google.com is finding my old job sites.

http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=k&om=1&ll=15.591706,49.133563&spn=0.015997,0.027037&z=15

I was out there before we poured the first foundation. Some of the really early site guys lived in tents in this place.

That is well and truly the middle of freaking no where. You’ve got to be pretty comfortable with yourself and your co-workers to be in that kind of environment for more than a couple days.
