Further Adventures of the First Floor…and
Beyond
Quite a week! Things are moving rapidly with workmen at
many turns (don’t want to exaggerate).
Not only the first floor is changing, but the art department, inside and
out. The “yard” next to the driveway leading to the baseball field, is beginning to show
that something’s a’foot (or tractor tread) as more channels are dug, occupied
with pipes of some kind, then refilled; concrete cut; sand dumped.
Last week already the vestibule of chapel
was showing hints of change.
Looking out the south side windows or
stepping out the basement door brings one to the sad but necessary sight of the
demise of our Empress (tree). She was
always so regal in spring when she wore her pink-blossomed crown. But she was ailing. Empress was planted by Sr. M. Reina and her
sister Mil around 1964.
Seen in this is work being done on pipes being cut, in the art patio.
Next issue—more on the chapel end (we trust) as well as more developments on the rest of the first floor. We may see if anything further is happening in the art department, too.
