*gasp!!!!***


Coming up for air, the summer is over, school is starting, will post pictures of the buildings soon.

Building A - everyone seems to like but one cranky old chemistry teacher, who called her lab "unworkable". Working on expensive fix. Building is still not finished, fancy handrails creating issue with subcontractor with no sense of time management. Temps are in place, but no clue when real ones arrive. Placing trees shrubs and grass (not done due to 36 days of rain in 2 months) and meeting a really entertaining botany/landscaper/biology professor in the process. Interesting cast of characters overall. Technology issues (always!) but working on better way of communicating with client to prevent future disasters.

Building B- New theater looks great, projectors too far away from screen (pesky technology again) but fixable. Everyone likes, but pool is still not done (5 months behind!) and school is completely run by athletics. Mascot we designed looks great big on walls (thank god!) Interesting cast of characters but perhaps a bit on the whiny side. Contractor is OK, has issues with the big picture, hence the delays. Delays, Delays (said with Marvin Martian Voice)

Personal life is pretty slow, just the usual movies, etc. Need to work on that.

Ahhh, good times...

Hey man... sounds exciting! Must be cool to see your design actually progress in reality. Hope your project progresses quickly!
