Holes

Since 2004 I have been involved in several hundred feet of trench digging and the digging of numerous holes. Septic holes or tree trunk support holes, I've watched them all being dug by young men and women both Brasilian and American. I worked with some of the nicest human beings, some of the lazier human beings, some with wonderful homes, some with not so wonderful homes, some who know the Lord and some who don't. Digging is a great equalizer, wealth doesn't matter, physical strength helps but isn't essential, what seems to count is whether you have the mental perseverance to stay the course. When you are only 3 degrees off the equator it gets hot and when it gets hot your mind starts to work on you. I have been fortunate to watch lots of young people work through the heat and overcome the misery quotient that wants to beat you down. Enjoy the clips!
