Stone Sanctuary, Chapter 8: One bucket at a time

The devastation at the World Trade Center was first emptied a five gallon bucket at a time.

In the myth of Iron John, a lake is emptied one bucket at a time, i.e, one works with the unconscious very slowly.

The red truck is frequently loaded with forty of these ubiquitous buckets before going on quests for stone.

Here, in making a place for the next project — the Red Egg —  those forty buckets are filled again.
