Happenings On Our Street

I drove down the street - and saw this huge tree across the street. I thought it had fallen down but I think they chopped it down...

There were about 5 guys chopping down the tree. No chain saws, only axes...labor is cheap here, electric tools are almost non-existent.

These ladies were walking down the street with their brooms. I wasn't sure if they were there to clean up the debris from the tree or if they were off to another job sweeping dirt from the street. Again, no street cleaners (the big truck with brushes) only ladies with big brooms!
