Aboard The Snowplow

Day 300: My job is so much fun! I never know what I may be enlisted to do above and beyond my regular office duties. Today, I had the privilege of escorting an intern from the Regional office on a photo shoot, introducing him to the supervisors and workers in many of the different Park divisions. I was also charged with the duty of photographing the photographer and his lighting set-up, something of a challenge for me because I prefer not to use flash. Although in many cases I was shooting at speeds of 1/2 second or slower, I was still able to get non-blurred images of him and his interviewees. Of course there was also some latitude for me to take some fun shots of my own, and in both the Auto Shop and the Road Shop area, I was allowed to climb aboard a "Big Toy." Here, the view is from the cab of a snowplow in for its routine summer "physical." I really want to take one of these for a spin around the block!
