These guys here a combining work and Circ de Soliel. Far above my pay grade - no pun intended. Couldn't agree more. I would love to visit Spain to see the Sagrada Familia. It was started in the late 1800s, when everything had to be manhandled into place. They are planning to finish it by 2026, the hundredth anniversary of the death of the architect. I attended a presentation by two folks from Spain, on the life of the architect. This has some beautiful pics of the building and construction. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-3291975/Remarkable-new-photographs-Barcelona-s-Sagrada-Familia-glory-construction-work-Spain-s-biggest-tourist-attraction-enters-final-phase.html And this video segment on CBS's 60 Minutes.

USNRET Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Lazy Friday off; been clearing out the office, hobby, my only room attempting to put tools, cables, terminals, junk in their place. That'll probably last one day...if I get it finished. A couple of years ago I donated a Sansui tuner modded by rdioxtuner, an Emo Mini X amp and a pair of Klipsch KP something (a pair of the ones the wagon train pulled thru several states) to the guys that wash our aircraft so they could have something other than the oh my gosh awful boombox they were using on the wash rack. Yesterday I was told that it had no output so I brought the amp and tuner home for a check out. Gotta determine what's up; all indications were normal when I looked at it at work. Tuner output? Amp?

All that big money for high wire work is no wonder that you now live the Life of Riley. They would need to bring my money in dump trucks for me to scale those towers - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this sucazz state there would be a dollar tax on that purchase as well as a "CRV" disposal Fee. There is NOTHING in this state that is Tax/Fee free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
