The 'F' Word

Frustration was the word of the day. It felt like nothing was going as planned. A few days ago Mike took some old stainless steel piping to the ‘Sinai’ to have it fabricated into a support post for the wind generator. After lugging a meter and a half piece of steel back on the dolmus, he got the body of the wind generator mounted. But not soon after, Willy from down the dock, came by and told us that the pipe is much to small to support the generator. We reluctantly had to admit that all of the other wind generators we have seen are on pretty beefy poles. The plan to use material that we had lying around and save a few lira may not work out in the long run. Shit. That a long with several other things such as wasting too much time in town on errands, cables being too short, etc. led to a bit of frustration. It was at that point when we tried to put our energy into things that were easy and concrete just to give us a feeling of completion and success. Those other issues can just wait until tomorrow.
