Week 9: Don't Blink....!

It's true what they say about a watched pot.

I was out of town for most of this week at a conference for my "other" job, and was absolutely floored at what greeted me upon my return.

This week's photo album entries make up a complete walk-around of the work site, and reveal a tremendous amount of work accomplished just this week. The elevator shaft is now extended up through the first floor, as is the public stairwell near the entrance to the hall. Over in the banquet hall, the kitchen walls are going up, and the area has been staked out around the entrances to the hall.

Of particular interest this week is the construction of a larger "mock wall", showing the materials that will be used on the exterior of the building. This is our first real glance at what the finished building will look like, and gives the Capital Campaign Committee the information they need to start ordering bricks for the memorial walk.

It may be just a coincidence that all this happened while I was gone, but just in case, I'm willing to take a few extra vacations this year. :)

Until next week!
