CNSTRCTN Vol. VIII, #4 CLEARING THE WAY

Memories like birds, fleeting--they must be grasped and held in heart's hands.

  

So what we have here looks somewhat familiar to you now, doesn't it?  In the second photo, however, we see the workman drilling at the base of the door frame (enlarge the photo so you can see what he's doing).  In the third photo you are taking your last look at the wall between the principal's old office and the classroom next to it...

...because, voila,
 it's all down.  The man you see in the second photo went at it with a sledge hammer and did the deed.  This took him a few days because of all the things the wall was holding or supporting.  The rubble will be cleared when there is a front loader to remove it after it is carted to the outside door, probably by the same man.  He's the only workman blogger saw inside the building last week.  The front loader can still be brought to the outside door because there is still the large opening in the new north wall of the CRC extension.  Follow?

There was a little action in the chapel extension, but blogger wasn't able to photograph it.  If this coming week is nicer to construction workers than the last few weeks have been, we will probably see more action at the chapel end.

A slow week, to be sure, but that is to be expected occasionally.  There are great hopes for the next few months with regard to the extensions of both the CRC and the chapel.  We shall see if they are to be realized.  Stay tuned.
