Preparing for Wrecking

Spotted a truck dropping off a dumpster on State Street, yesterday. I walked by at first, but then swung back with my phone to try to snap a photo. Luckily for me, a guy had hopped onto the truck to talk to the driver… and the dumpster was paused in this position.

Somehow, while juggling a cup of coffee… I managed to get this shot. I felt really fortunate, as I had to take the picture in between cars going by. As luck would have it, things timed out just right.

I’m reminded of the day Chris and I walked down Elston, and I happened to see a sign advertising Heneghan Wrecking Company.

It’s been about 10 years. And it looks like they copyrighted that magnificent tagline, which I am still in love with.
