Fellow Spy, Mr. 007 himself, Sean Connery toasted his last Martini last week. He died peacefully in his sleep while in the Bahamas, as reported by his family. He gave us 7 films (as the coolest spy EVER) in the classic James Bond series; reminding us that being true to who you are is one way to earn immortality. [We can hear all of the Scottish accent impressions and famous phrases stringing down the comments now.] He leaves us a catalogue of performances and a host of charac...ters we could relish for months! Sir Connery (yes, he was knighted back in 2000) was a distinguished gentleman, a philanthropist and a left to center supporter of Scottish independence. A rebel. Our friends at Fatherly wrote a a beautiful piece on how cool he was and how his influence spread, not only across nations but across generations; and we have to agree! His thick Scotsman speak and lady killing cool won't soon be forgotten. So here's to immortality; may the legendary and iconic wit, charm and cool of our favorite '007 live in our collective memories forever!

It's #FeelGoodFriday and we're celebrating the essential service workers at Pipe Spy so you can get to know us! Meet Pedro Vidaurri Carrasco, one of our Crew Chiefs. Pedro has been with Pipe Spy since 2007. He previously worked as a salesman selling livestock in Mexico, providing quality farm meats to the region. 12 years ago, he chose to migrate to the U.S. for a better opportunity and quality of life for him and his family. He explains, Pipe Spy hired me with the opportuni...ty to grow and expand with my technical and mechanical skills. Pedro has always enjoyed working with his hands and being part of a great organization. Over the years, Pedro has shown true leadership and skill graduating him to having his own crew in 2016. He is highly skilled in engineering solutions to the challenges that can arise in underground sewer repairs; and he commits himself and his crew to providing the best outcomes for Pipe Spy customers. He loves going back to his ranch in his hometown and travels there frequently. He spends his time here working hard so that he can support his family back home and improve his ranch. He really looks forward to going home because the town is so neighborly; everyone knows and looks out for each other because the towns’ people have come to depend on one another for safety. Pedro has three beautiful children and in his spare time here in the States, he enjoys short bike rides with his kids, living life to the fullest and appreciating the smaller and enjoyable things in life. He loves traditional Mexican music, spending time with his family and when there is time, he and the loved ones like to explore local outdoor markets and eateries in the Oakland area. Pedro’s story is one like so many essential workers in this country; so join us in honoring him and several like him for their essential service to communities all over the East Bay! Gracias, Pedro!!!
