No use waiting for a repairMAN

.
City Daily Photo's Theme Day is about chimneys, which made me realize that Israel does not have many chimneys at all.

Then I remembered a little place with an old wood-burning heating stove, and I recalled a cold and windy day last January when I took this picture:
Two women up on the roof trying to repair the old chimney so that smoke would go up and out while keeping the rain from dripping down into the room!

Actually I have blogged about two other chimneys over the years but those posts are more serious and not as fun as today's:

City Daily Photo's portal is down right now, so Julie in Sydney is again kindly making a gathering place for the chimney posts from around the world at http://cdpbthemeday.blogspot.com.au/.

  6. I guess you don't need them in your climate. I'm sure they fixed it.

  7. Hmmmm... chimneys? I guess that's one thing that would be difficult to find in Hawaii. Maybe on the Big Island though. You certainly won't find it on Oahu.
