Brick by brick

I was bored at work, so since I like destroying things so much I decided to start knocking down a building. I am doing it brick by brick, it will take time. I will finish soon.



OK. It's a joke. The above building is the Jesuit Residence at Loyola University Chicago. It is coming down to make room for green space. The green space is for a "green" building called the Information Commons (A library with no books) which you can see behind the Jesuit Residence. No worries the Jesuits moved out before the demo started. Oddly I am standing on the front step of the oldest building on campus which houses our brand new Data Center (Computer room), which is not green. Also they have fences all over campus which gives it a feeling of giant maze.

We did go up this weekend to work on the house. But I have no new images. I finish the joint compound in the bedroom, but it did not dry in time for sanding. I did prototype the new bath room wall to get a sense it would be like with the door in difference place. I wish I took a photo of that, because I build a wall with no fasters (nails or screws) all I had to do is pull one board and the wall came down.

And we have a new baby deer running around the property. I saw him (or her) Sunday morning. He was only a few days old. And our cherry tree has a ton of small cherries starting grow.
