Oh, Mr. Sandman

Well we had a first for me at the job site today. We had a snow day at the job site.
Not really a snow day, more like a sandstorm day. The wind really started picking up today about 9 or 9:30.....pieces of sheet metal were flying around here and there and the metal fence near the job trailer was banging and clanging. The general contractor told all of the stone masons to stay off of the scaffolding so there would not be any accidents. By 12:30 the very fine sand was still blowing harder and thicker.
We shut the job site down about 1:00. On the drive home you could not see the Mediterranean Sea from the hotel it was that foggy/sandy. It was sort of like the movie, “The Fog” as we were driving past the harbor.
Good thing I had gone to the grocery store yesterday to pick up some butter and bread and some more canned drinks. One of the guys at the office said that October is known for sandstorms and sometimes they can last two or three days. Glad my internet and satellite dish are working in case I get sanded in.
I will let you know how long I am stuck in the apartment.
