The initial building had been in pace for about 35 years and the "new addition" for about 20 years. So it was time for some repairs.
OUTSIDE
Some were medium repairs, like replacing a piece of sideboard (above).
Some were small, like replacing a board (above).
And some were large, like replacing the whole roof (above).
While the contractor was working on the repairs it was hot as he.., but when they were ready to paint, it turned cool and rained, and rained. L o n g story short, the building is not painted yet.

DEJA' VUE
You might be wondering why there were so many "file photos".
As I was leaving the office, a close friend, Llyod Ziegenbein, call.
Lloyd was having trouble with his arm and hand on one side of his body.
I send him to a near-by emergency medical clinic,
where the agreed with my concerns that Lloyd might be having a stroke.
They sent Lloyd to a near-by hospital where, after a CT scan,
the diagnosis was confirmed.
About half way through the session I had a call from Lloyd's wife Kay.
Ken Ellison was using my Iphone to take pictures of the session.
No more photos were taken, my bad.
