First day of our fencing project at Wupatki National Monument. I started off hauling. So much fun. But this time I was hauling cement which weighs 60lbs. It was pretty difficult! The strange thing was that we only had 3 guys in our crew.. A little strange when we were having to haul.
So we hauled these bags of cement a mile into the desert and had a break, but when I bent down to pick up the bag if cement (lifting with my legs obviously) I heard an enormous ripping sound and then a cold draft on my bum :S I had ripped a huge hole in the back of my trousers! It went all the way from the top seam and a few inches down one leg.. It was a tad embarrassing!! Especially as I had to walk back to the van with my ass on show :s but everyone else was in hysterics! I had to fix it with duct tape (as usual).
