I'm helping to build the new US Ebassey here in Beijing. Not a bad gig, lots of history to see!
Here's some pics of me on the Great Wall.

Hey Candy ManF.,
Most likely will go back overseas for the next Five years, trying to make some money! The Beijing US Embassey will be finished by 2008 for the China Olympics. Basically Consruction work, hired on as laborer, became form carpenter, then heavy equipment operator, then crew lead and now filling in for my foreman as he is back in the states. Might as welll call me a jack of all trades. I've been in China for the past 10 months. Staying warm as best I can, I'm in and out of the warehouse so it is not to bad. I do stay outside for hours at a time running heavy equipment (container stacker, front loader, skytrak, bobcat, fork lifts, ETC.) or rigging for the tower cranes and flying material into the building. I'm on nights so it gets very cold, but I'm getting use to it!
Ride safe!!
