"Holy Puddle, Batman!"


Who says we don't need better drainage? This photo was taken from Fellowship Hall, looking out the main entrance toward the parking lot. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COME IN THIS WAY ON SUNDAY MORNING!

What is happening today? The irrigation/sprinkler company (Karjala) is here to move the the irrigation lines. I'm not sure if they are moving the sprinkler meter or if they need to wait for Lakehaven to move the water meter on Tuesday (3/5). Also, the roof guys are removing a few tiers of tile shingles to make way for the new roof line.

I don't think the workers were too happy about the rain today, but they seem to be used to it. Onward!

Finally!!





  I can't believe we have been waiting since September of 2012 to get this project off the ground, but today there was visible evidence that things are beginning to happen. The sidewalk is being demolished so new footings can be dug and cement poured to create a new foundation for expansion.

  It was the first part of February when the City of Federal Way approved the plans submitted by HHJ (our architectural and construction firm). We signed the final contract and now things have begun.

  I may not get daily posts, but you can expect something new 2-3 times a week. If I get good enough at this, I might even try to insert a video at some point. I think I will spare you the picture of the Honey Bucket. Completion target is June 21, 2013.
