men on stilts at work

yesterday while surveying recent work at the house, we were taken aback when a man on stilts walked down the hallway and waved hello.

totally distracted, we couldn't continue the conversation we were having with our contractor.  instead, we started giggling and asked him if he knew that the circus had come into town.

dabney and i had no idea that this is a thing until today.  of course, stilts make perfect sense for finishing drywall joints on ceilings and anything else above head high. i just had never thought about it before.
