Full Court or Half Court????


HGA Staff have seen a great amount of progress on our new basketball court. As you can see from these pictures, the construction is almost about done. Now we are just waiting on our court to be put up once more. At the moment it is difficult to tell if it's going to be a full or half court. We have some dirt and machines in the way, but once that is taken care of all we need is some cement and a good basketball for the real games :)

YMCA Ramp and Wall Demolishing










On one side you have a nice and clean area, and on the other you have a chaotic, but organized mess. The stage ramp and accompanying wall have been demolished but they still need a couple of stairs to go. The dust has been billowing out of the library so thickly our building seems as if it were filled with smoke! The construction crew are using jackhammers to break it up and then haul out all of the pieces the old-fashioned way...shovels and wheelbarrows.

The Inside of the Wall










We hear clicking, clacking, hammering, and sawing. All of the things that would drive a person crazy, but not for the Home Gardens Library Staff for they are all strong willed individuals who can stand to hear all of these noises. The expansion is coming along just fine. With the new windows in place, we can start to see where all the rooms will be. There does seem to be a bit of a water leakage.
