Working in the Heat

The temperatures this week have kept many people indoors, but not our faithful construction workers.  Despite a heat index of 110, they are working hard.  Some have adjusted their schedules in order to avoid as much of the intense sun as possible.  The good news is that some of the work they are doing is actually creating instead of demolishing. 

A trench has been dug for water pipes to be laid.  This area will end up being a hallway that will come from the back of the building and run beside the cafeteria where the stage is currently located. 



I refer to this as the baby backhoe.  It has been used to get into the tight spaces in the kitchen area.  The worker is now using it to move gravel to fill the open trenches. 



(Sorry for the quality of the photo.)  This is the first new brick being laid in the kitchen area.  This was originally the dirty tray return window.  The door frame on the right is new.
