Hello again!  Sorry it’s taken me all week to get these new photos up.  We actually weren’t in town last Saturday for the flooring work call, so I stopped by on Wednesday to get these pics.

And boy does it look great!  I guess I hadn’t realized what a difference nice new carpet and tile will make.  I’ll admit, when we painted the chocolate wall in the reception room, it didn’t look great with only the bare concrete next to it.  But I think with the nice light carpet, it really stands out!  Jay and John have got their offices all set up, and you can see in the pics the new vinyl baseboards (generously donated by Sutherlands!) laid out on the floor, getting straightened out so that we can get them installed at tomorrow’s work call.

Speaking of work calls, we’re gonna go ahead and have a standing 9:00 am Saturday work call until all of the renovations are finished.  Tomorrow, we will be touching up the tile and carpet, putting up the baseboards, and starting on the door in the back room that will connect the office/annex space to the actual backstage area.  I am so excited about this part!  Connecting the new and the old spaces is the whole point of the new backstage area, and it’s really gonna happen!

As always, thank you so much to all the wonderful volunteers who have been coming out and giving up their Saturday mornings to this enterprise.  And a special thank you to Stan, Kadi and Justin Robinson: with their knowledge and experience, we would not be able to make the progress we have to this point.

See you tomorrow!

Katie
