    I hope that those pants are rated for chemicals, they have been dumping shit in that water for days to clear up the bloom.

      That dude in the front is wearing camo overalls. Is he trying to sneak up on the algae? Is he an assassin?

      Dude behind him is wearing dayglow. They are giving mixed signals.

          Plebe safety is not highly ranked in the list of priorities. No one is doing that job unless they need to. I hope they at least get health insurance…

              I was being hopeful :). I don’t know if they’re federal park employees maintaining the memorial or how that works. In any case I try to normalize it where I can.
