Beautiful shots Ron. Right after I got out of the Army in 1965 I applied for as a painter on the Golden Gate Bridge. I didn't get it because I didn't have a relative in the Union. I always felt I had missed out on a great experience. I envy those guys

Hey John.....I hear the “work” is easy with the help of gravity (and cajones). These guys repel themselves from the rooftop (anchors)…..one way, on a single rope…..yikes!!
