I looked out my LR window this morning and saw two PSE&G repair trucks on Ward St by the E lot - nothing unusual there.
Two minutes later, I only saw one truck and it was turning around and backing up one-way Ward.............unusual.
Something must be going on on the other side of my building, so I walked across the roof, looked down, and saw this (first picture).
I cropped it to get a better look at what they were doing (second picture). It reminds me of work being done in bay of a space shuttle in orbit.
I cropped it again to get a look at what's in the buckets and side bags (third picture).
I took a grand total of two pictures. The first one just showed the guys in their buckets, but this one showed some interaction between them.
I wish I had taken more.
There were two police cars parked 100' or so behind them. Somebody nearby started shooting off what sounded like oversized bottle rockets. If the cops had looked up, all they would have seen was a lone figure standing on the roof - me.
I had what I needed, so I went in and got to croppin'.
