Well, went back to work last monday, pretty much right back into the groove. Mostly doing orientations for the contractors on site and getting ready for the upcomming outage, we're building silos for flyash on one project and getting ready to replace the auxillary boiler on the other. They were having a pre construction meeting in one of the conference rooms & I got a call from our Construction Manager to come to the meeting room that someone had gotten snake bit. Seems that with the hot, dry weather a banded water snake (non posioness) had decided to get into the building. The project manager (55 years old) for one of the contractors decided to be the big hero and pick the snake up. Snake decided he didn't want to be picked up & bit him in the web between the thumb and fore finger. Had to take him to the Nurse's station for tetnus shot and clean & bandage the wound ( 4 little abrasions with no punctures that we could see. The bandaging made it a First Aid. We kinda pride ourselves on doing an outage without any injuries and here this idiot got us one before the outage even starts. He won't even be on site, thank Heaven for that anyway. They got the snake into a bag and took it away form the offices and turned it loose, not really my idea of what should have been done with it, but not my choice. Just thought you guys would get a little chuckle out of this. Keith

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
