Jobs only Mexicans will do, or, build your own patio

Cool stuff Add comments

Shoveling gravel and sand, raking, hauling heavy loads, laying bricks, getting brick dust in your nose and sand in your ass crack… These are the jobs only Mexicans will do, or so I’ve been told by people who think they know it all.

Not so at The Compound. As readers and friends may realize, we’re building a new paver stone patio in the back of the house, and during the past two days, we’ve done all those manual labor tasks, and I have the pictures to prove it.

    Your bricks look great, it would be nice on a hot day. I was surprised to see that you didn’t have any broken down cars, but I did notice the hound dog. I figured that all white men were red necks…did you clean up when you moved to the suburbs?

    Are you for hire? Do you travel to Upstate NY?

    Just found your site. Glad to see you are doing well and still in good humor. Drop me a line I will update you on my life. It won’t take long I promise.

    Tell Tim I say hello(if he remembers me).
