About Me

We are spending the summer in Spain and hoping that this simple blog will keep our friends and family informed about our activities. Of course, if you want to follow this in chronological order, you have to start at the bottom of the blog. Also, by clicking on any of the blog photos you should be taken to a Flickr page with additional images of our trip.

Union Maid


Union Maid

We couldn´t help but think of the tradeswomen in our lives (in particular our beloved Worker Anne) when we came across these bags of union-made concrete mix. Although we have yet to see any women working in the construction industry here in Spain, we enjoyed the way the female laborer is depicted on the bag. As the bag says, always wear gloves to protect your hands but beyond that, worksite dress code is up to you. Bare midriff and shorts? You bet, girl! And, as Antonia was quick to notice, the union maid who is truly in solidarity with the cause has her breast tatooed with the same logo as her hard hat.
