...AND NOW LETS PUT SOME DIRT BACK...

That is bed rock, er dirt rock with bed rock being put on top of it.  The uppy downy bits are being stabilized with concrete and re bar and stuff.  As you can see more dirt got nibbled off enough to see most of the clinic roof. 

Now onto something slightly different yet hospital related.

We had a guest doctor, an internist from Romania came for medical staff.  Very nice gentleman. Looking to finish up medical school in less than a year, loves the area, his wife is also in the medical field and would provide valuable health care.

So, sure enough during medical staff as the meeting was opened up to general questions, I blurted out the two words of Romanian that I know, "Buna seara!"  (good evening).  He looked startled and replied back to me.  Meeting was very congenial once they started swapping fishing stories.

And now a small aside to explain how I learned my two words of Romanian.  During the mid 70's, I was living in Idaho working waiting to go to school at BSU.  I and sister, Ellion, both worked at a fruit packing shed on an apple farm.  She stamped boxes and I sorted apples.  One day, Mr. Dewey brought around two gentleman and told us that they were participating in a work exchange program and were from Romania.  He introduced them as "Our friends from behind the Iron Curtain".  Really.  At any rate we sort of got acquainted with various forms of chit chat,
"How do you say good evening?"
"Buna seara" 
"Hey that sounds like Italian!" 
"Yes, Italians influenced language, from time of Imperial Romans".  Uh huh.  Then other bits of chit chat.  It was near Christmas and they would be returning home soon. 
 "Have you purchased Christmas gifts for your family?" 
"Yes, ool."
Ool.  ???
"Bah bah" 
"Oh wool!"

They were fun to get acquainted with and were hard working. 

Some other time I will speak of the Japanese crew that came to work for Mr. Dewey.
