| | Dean, The "goons" are Quent Cordair and two of his loyal employees, Sean and Chris. I wasn't there on the day of that particular task so I managed to avoid the shower of sparks. But there's been a number of rather demanding jobs that have come up for each and every one of us that's been involved in the renovations. It's been very rewarding and inspiring to work with people that have such an admirable dedication to completing this job, without cutting any corners, no matter how long or how difficult the job has been. At times we've all found ourselves dealing with various unexpected obstacles while being very pressed for time. Hence the need for the staff to get things done at times when their usual contractor is unavailable. Quent, Linda, Sean, and Chris have each put in 10-15 hours a day, every single day for the past couple of weeks (I'm not exaggerating here). But the new space looks phenomenal and there were no aesthetic compromises made. It's exactly as Quent and Linda wanted it to be. :-)
Jeff, I'm familiar with the Art Renewal Center and I check out the site often. So much uplifting art and so little time! Not too mention how little money I have to purchase any of it... ;-)
