04 Jun 08 It's 4 AM and the lizards are out

I've got a few more weeks of night shift and I'll be glad when it's
done and I am again a 'day walker'. I'm the only one around at night
except for an occasional security person to come around and of course
the lizards. The lizards are about 3-4 inches long and the other
night I snuck up to a lizard which was hiding in a crack in the t-wall
and grabbed his tail. Sure enough, the tail came off and continued to
wiggle while the lizard made a clean get-away! The pic below with
spots is just dust in the air. This happens when I use a flash at
dark. You can also see how tall the t-walls are. Also the grate that
I'm standing on is what we use to scrape our boots on during the muddy
season. That about sums up how exciting the night shift is!
