A couple weeks ago a blog friend here in Oklahoma emailed me with a heads up that the First Presbyterian Church of Tulsa was putting up their new steeple in downtown Tulsa.
I had to go check it out. For an economic downturn going on Tulsa sure has lots of projects going on. I try and sidewalk supervise all of them but there is only so much that one guy can do. So I need all the help I can get.
My friend told me that her husband would most likely be the guy at the top bolting the steeple onto its base. I think this may be him. I hope that he was appreciating the daytime moon while he was working. Actually I bet that he pretty much concentrates on his job and lets us desk jockeys worry about composing the shot.
This is from the church’s web site showing what it is going to look like when they are done.
A nice chronicle of the re-do of a Tulsa landmark.
Hey–I like the new header pic.
Wow, what an amazing operation to watch.
Well, I’m sure that Tulsa is grateful to have you supervising as many as you do!! These are fascinating photos, hope to see your pics when it’s finished! Love your skies! So blue and with that fading moon! Enjoy your day!

In my opinion, whatever they’re paying him isn’t enough!
Yeah — that’s one guy I really hope wasn’t being a skywatcher right at that moment.
Nice pictures — my husband would be happy to help you as a sidewalk super if we were closer!
I like the new look of your blog!
A two steepler! Hope you show it when it’s completed.
Good job Yogi, you supervised well 😉
I like the glimpse of the moon captured in your photo, very arty.
Great shots for SWF,Yogi!Have a nice weekend!
Interesting skywatch shot. So cool to see a building being built.
I’d hate to be in that cherrypicker but fascinating pictures (as usual).
Leave me out of dangling above a steeple! Nice shots though.
Nice photos.
Regards and best wishes
Great shots! And so high up at the very top… feels faint!
Hi, Yogi! So glad you are out there supervising. Funny you should bring it up, but my town seems to have a lot of construction going on, too, for an economic downturn.
Amazing coverage of the church’s construction. 🙂 Glad that it was a beautiful too. It looks like it will be beautiful and grand after it’s completed.
Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂

It’s sure a very important project! I hope to see it when it’s ready! Thans for your visit! Have a great weekend!
He’s one very brave guy to be way up there. If it were me, I wouldn’t see the moon as I would have fainted in fright!
Oh my! That is high! Great blue in the sky and the moon just makes it seem even taller!
That’s quite a job, bolting steeples. I think I’d rather be the photographer and enjoy that daytime moon.
Not a cloud in the sky. I’d rather be on the sidewalk looking up than standing at the top of that crane!
