The first thing we noticed when we arrived at the new building was the effects of the recent storms. A limb the size of a tree itself had fallen off of the tree out front and took down the phone lines with it. Luckily it missed everything else.
It was a HUGE move and took a lot longer than anyone expected, but we had the best volunteers with lots of smiles and good spirits despite the hard work. We were all on a high being in the new space (and it wasn't just the floor sealant fumes!).
In the middle of it we broke for a pizza lunch and took a much-needed sit-down for a few minutes. Once that was done, there was yet another truck to be unloaded... and another... and another... but it's finally all at the new building.
Now comes the long job of unpacking, organizing, and arranging everything. With the help of our studio assistants, volunteers, and of course outstanding leadership, it will get done on time.
Stay tuned.
