One of my favorite slate tools is the Rhys Mawr, a large mallet used to split larger blocks of slates. The quarryman on the right side of the photo is wielding this impressive tool! #geology #thestoryofslate #wales

I’ve also thought a lot recently about my grandaddy—grew up in the Depression—a sailor in WWII—worked as a welder, quarryman, & Southern Baptist pastor—exemplified a "traditional" masculinity—& he would have been baffled by the version of masculinity trumpeted by politicians & podcasters in 2025
I’ve been thinking a lot about the last time I deliberately visited my cousins in north Georgia in 2004—We’ve always been really different—they’re conservatives, hunters, gun owners & I’m the pointy-headed academic—I remember them ribbing me about the John Kerry sticker on our car, cheering for Bush

Eddie was taken in by the church while pregnant after being rescued from his father, and after giving birth the church arranged transport to the town where his uncle works as a quarryman. They tell everyone that El is simply his baby sister and they're orphans.

Et comme vous avez dû le remarquer il y a un train un peu spécial ici.
Il s'agit du Quarryman, l'un des petits historiques du Pays-de-Galles, exploité par le Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways, la compagnie la plus ancienne encore opérationnelle au monde, qui existe depuis 1832 !
