"I'd rather be in Philadelphia"

W.C. Fields asked that on his tombstone it be written " I'd rather be in Philadelphia".  Well, Kadizzle is in Philadelphia with Evie, Sylvie, Uncle Ben and the whole gang.  Megan lives in an old row house so we are on the third or fourth floor. It is a hike up to our room and back down, but we are having fun with the two little cousin's playing together.  Sylvie is the big sister type.  The big job has been helping Sam and Megan build their new patio.  Moving debris from the back of the house to the front is a nightmare because of the narrow walkway between the houses.  We have 24 inches to work with.  Now how in the hell are we going to haul paving bricks, gravel, and sand back there?  Somehow we will need a narrow wheel barrow.

The Kadizzles now move back and forth from the mid west to the east.  The entire east coat has become a giant shopping mall from Florida to well past New York City.  The country is filling up.

Back to the back yard project.  In the course of removing all the cement and stuff from the old set up it was necessary to move tons of concrete chunks and gravel.  How do you do it?  You hire a guy with a Mexican and a Honduran.   Then you fill buckets and haul them by hand to the street.  Sam, Kadizzle, tow immigrants, and their boss moved the two tons of rubble.  Once Trump deports all the people willing to work hard, the country will come to a stop.  These two immigrants work hard all day.  Actually with tips they might make a half decent living.  We worked for about two or three hours. Kadizzle gave them each a twenty dollar tip.  If they did three of these jobs a day that would come to sixty bucks each just in tips in addition to their pay.  It is worth it.  The insanity of driving low cost labor out of the country is something only Trump could dream up.  The idiot we have for president uses cheap labor at his own golf courses.  Nothing like shooting your own foot off.  The number of businesses that cannot function for lack of help is amazing.  In our home town in the middle of nowhere the grocer has to import people from the Philippines to work the deli. Back in AZ sits a new restaurant that cannot open for lack of workers.
