He wets the roads so the dirt doesn't get on the strawberries. Not only does he keep the strawberries cleaner, but the real issue are the bugs that the dirt brings with it- I never new.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2pIUoyyI/AAAAAAAAARI/-CGqppAvwU4/s1600-h/joel+at+work+004.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377428404061129506" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2pIUoyyI/AAAAAAAAARI/-CGqppAvwU4/s400/joel+at+work+004.jpg" /></a><br />A couple times a week, he also uses this truck to help mix the pesticides they apply on the strawberries. On those days he works from 7:00a.m. until about 1:00, and then goes back to work at 6:00p.m. until 10, or 11, sometimes later. Kind of a crazy schedule.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2oSpz_JI/AAAAAAAAARA/CI3DHLVAwbk/s1600-h/joel+at+work+003.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377428389654428818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2oSpz_JI/AAAAAAAAARA/CI3DHLVAwbk/s400/joel+at+work+003.jpg" /></a> This truck is so old they don't make parts for it anymore. Joel has had to rig up the seat belt to hold the door shut. He has to sit halfway on flat cardboard boxes to sit level. There are no glass on the windows, and lately when he applies the brakes they don't un-break after, so he has to use the breaks as little as possible. :) At least he's not bored. </div><div>While he drives he is able to practice learning a little Spanish everyday. There is only one person on the job who speaks English, Lucio, his boss. Joel is learning Spanish well working with all the Mexicans.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2n5Z9gvI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/ISSYLrXL-pw/s1600-h/joel+at+work+002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377428382877057778" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SqB2n5Z9gvI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/ISSYLrXL-pw/s400/joel+at+work+002.jpg" /></a> This job isn't exactly appealing to a college graduate, but you've got to start at the bottom and work your way up. We're just here for a while and then Joel's family business will set us up somewhere else. We'll see what they have in store for us, and when. </div><div> </div><div>All in all, we lead very blessed lives. <div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/880085460336935748-12500607996084230?l=llgkaupert.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lorene G.

We found no one. Joel finally called Animal Control, and when they came to pick up the puppy, our four year old next door neighbor was outside and said, "That's my Auntie's dog."<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SifrVtbZM_I/AAAAAAAAAI4/4iMMmXAA7tg/s1600-h/Jon%27s+B-day+003.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343498241102656498" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SifrVtbZM_I/AAAAAAAAAI4/4iMMmXAA7tg/s400/Jon%27s+B-day+003.jpg" /></a> Turns out this puppy gets out all the time, they've only had her for a short time and they didn't know she was even outside. I didn't ask them if it was their puppy because they have a small place with six people living there and two cats, I figured they wouldn't have a puppy also. But I guess I should have listened to the little voice in my head telling me to ask the neighbors. That was a close one!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SifrVaNZ93I/AAAAAAAAAIw/CBCHYPFPVhs/s1600-h/Jon%27s+B-day+004.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343498235943712626" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P0wcvXpNHAE/SifrVaNZ93I/AAAAAAAAAIw/CBCHYPFPVhs/s400/Jon%27s+B-day+004.jpg" /></a> Blue eyed beauty!
