Evening prayer

Some people will go to any height for evening prayer, but a steeplejack? Steeplejacks are rarer than chimney sweeps, but just as iconic, and they certainly need prayer in that kind of business.

We really were driving home from scouting a local new workshop location when we saw these guys setting up their ladders to get to the roof and finally the top of the steeple to set up their rigging. I returned near dusk and they were merrily swinging in the breeze scraping and sanding the steeple to prep it for painting tomorrow.

Just another reason to always carry a camera.

  1. You would need extremely strong roof ladders to carry out work on that roof.
