Not sure why two poles are required, but I guess they must have a reason. It was sort of cool watching them hoist the new pole into place and drop it in the hole.

Is this photo supposed to call attention to the irony of using the fancy broiler drawer on the top of the line kitchenaid range in the granite covered custom kitchen in the magnificent mountain house to cook Costco frozen pizza?

Cuz, if so, I approve of that message

You had me at the melted ceramics.

I would guess other utility companies have their wires on the pole on the bottom half of the old pole they left.

that’s what it is

I suspect that's the case, but it seems like if they shared the old pole they can share the new pole. I suppose it's just a case that the electric co. isn't going to move over the telecom, etc. equipment.

They are badass. Forget throwing a frisbee, a spear, or a cannonball, they throw fucking telephone poles! How'd you like that through your windshield?!?!

after dinner stroll better two kinds of black raspberries, regulars, and gooseberries. lots of cardinals and nighthawks out, summer doesn’t totally suck.
