Time for lunch on a hot Federal Hill day

Driving up Oakland Street and turning onto Woodland, I could not help but stop and chat with these guys enjoying their lunch on the shaded side of the house. It reminded me of a shot out of National Geographic or A Day In The Life Of…

Please meet (L to R): Adrian, Art, Omar, Rudy and Juan who drive up from Yonkers every day to work on redoing this house. The neighbors say they haven’t seen such hard workers in a very long time.

Lunch was from Plaza Oaxaca, on Farmington Avenue. I asked for permission to take their photo and if it was OK to go in the newspaper.

All TBE readers, supporters and donors       

The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.       

  • Non-members will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.       
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.       
  • Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.       

Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
