Our Street Light


Here's the street light. This photo was taken last Spring.




It's GONE! Here's the guy in the bucket -- too bad you can't see his face, he certainly could see mine (through the window)


There has been an on-going project on our street to replace the street lights. It started last Spring. I took the first photo of our street light, just in case they somehow (!) messed it up, I wanted photographic proof.

New street lights with bright yellow bulbs were installed up and down the street during the summer. Our old, white light remained right outside our window, unlit. We didn't know what to think and it seemed like the project was completed. Still, we were happy, the bothersome light right outside our window was dark.

Surprise, surprise. Last week the unimaginable happened. A guy in a little bucket, suspended on a mechanical arm was hoisted up the side of the building and the light was removed.

Of course, the guy showed up right outside our bedroom window when I was in the middle of changing clothes. Stark naked, I looked up and there was a guy in a bucket looking right in at me. A small price to pay for removal of a bothersome street light.
