Today I've a different angle on yesterday's photo that I've title, 'Dozing Off'. It better shows what was in front of the bulldozer as he cut a trail down the escarpment for us.
Today's photo is of a Caterpillar D8 (or D9, I'm not a Cat expert) cutting through the top of an escarpment to create a new pass.
Today's photo doesn't actually follow on from yesterday's Desert Shipwreck image but given the content I though Desert Flotsam was an appropriate title and now was an appropriate time to post.
If the camel is the ship of the desert then I think my title for today's photo - Desert Shipwreck - is appropriate. I still wonder how this camel met its end.
In the bottom of a wadi like this is not the best place to break down. Actually, I've no recollection of breaking down. I'm guessing we had some problem though because the hood of the Land Rover is open.
I never really enjoyed staying in Tripoli. I much preferred being in the desert. We used a variety of methods for our Libyan commute but in most cases it involved a Land Rover somewhere along the route.
