More Developments

Since readers do not lie on their desks to read blogs, only one photo appears on today's construction blog, i.e. all the other photos attempted ended up on their sides. What you see is the east side of the theater closest to the building (that's the kitchen dock on the right). The scaffolding is at the top of the back of the theater proper, and rising out of what will be the lobby. The roof of the lobby will be several feet below the height of the scaffolding. Other things of note on the theater scene that photos would have shown: the stage as it will appear to the audience-- the side walls on either side of the stage are in place now, and the floor of the prop storage room that extends into the theater yard is covered with a grid of rods and green plastic sheeting, indicating readiness to receive concrete.

Up on the hill, the tennis court appears ready also to receive its hard surface, having been prepared with the right kind of soil, a layer of some sort of sheeting (probably similar to or the same as that used on the parking lot several years ago, and which has kept it in such good condition), and at least one layer of fine gravel. Exciting things on every front appear as workmen try to beat unfavorable weather.
