Reen:
"Kim! over yonder, downed pole."
Kim:
"It's caught up on the lines! Their too high
to reach!"
Reen:
(diving headlong into a bramble patch, surfing
down shale) "It aint too high to reach, no stinkin pole is too
high to reach!"
Kim:
"Well!"
Reen:
"If I stand on my tiptoes I am just able
to caress the end of this crossarm!"
Kim:
(gingerly stepping over the brambles and stepping
softly over the shale) "Ratsass I stepped in a puddle!"
Reen:
"I'm going to cut the wire! Look out!"
Kim:
"Those are tin snips"
Reen:
"Fine! we'll saw those puppies off!"
Kim:
"Ratsass I stepped in a puddle!"
Kim:
"Lift me! I'll unscrew those spools!"
Reen:
"I can't lift you!"
Kim:
"Sure you can, your a sturdy girl, lift me!"
Reen:
"Ugh"
Kim:
"Got em, put me down! I'll take them over
there, Ratsass I stepped in
a puddle!"
Reen:
(sawing off the last of the insulators within
reach, we have short arms) "Come here help me carry these!"
Kim:
"Ratsass I stepped in a puddle!"
Kim:
"Your ear is bleeding! blood is gushing down
your neck!"
Reen:
"Really! Take a picture!"
This
is when we decided:
"Mentor, that's the ticket!"
"We need a Mentor!"
