From where I was standing, it looked like the end of the rainbow was at the Iron Duke Crusher.

For the mining company One Steel, the pot of gold at the end of this rainbow is Iron Ore.

Management instructed the formworkers off the job yesterday due to severe dust storms. As the storm got worse in the afternoon, dust blanketed the sunset, which made it possible to look directly at the sun.

Every now now and then it decides to rain at Iron Duke Mining Construction site. Sometimes, if you’re lucky, the odd rainbow will appear.

When Simon said to come up to Camp Turner to do a little bridge formwork, he mentioned that they had all the comforts of home like, Gym, Internet, theater Room etc.

While the theater room was not what I imagined, Camp Turner was quite good. The gym was well equipped with modern equipment, I was able to connect their wireless Internet service to my laptop, delicious BBQ every Saturday night, and all the laundry washing was done for us.

While traveling to and from Townsville, dropping into Bowen once in awhile to see friends and relax can be a real treat.

When doing formwork construction on the Gold Coast, I stay at my favorite beach front apartment building so that I can enjoy the fresh sea air and excellent views of the beach

Surfers Paradise Sunrise

Each morning, I usually leave myself enough time to take photos of the sunrise.

One of the highlights of doing formwork construction is seeing the sunrise every day. Just imagine, there are people who rarely ever get to see a sunrise. How lucky are you?
