February update
On February 15 the Murray Morgan Bridge - otherwise known as the 11th St bridge was dedicated. It is wonderful having the bridge open again. Thank you all who helped celebrate the day.

The Zen of Painting, Sanding, Painting...
Sometimes, you just have to do it over.
Yes, we are going to fix that yellow color!
We MUCH prefer the golden tone there on the left better.
And we will do the green again.
Why?
Because we like things to be just right!
Isn't she beautiful? So shinny on the outside. Ignore the yellow on the inside.
That was practice painting.
Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.
Success will be ours!
