Snapping Turtle Eggs

Look at Mrs. Turtle. She's laying eggs in our garden. Each spring she lays a big nest of eggs. We have yet to see them hatch. Don't get too close or she'll bite your finger off.

Moving along

The construction has really taken off. They have removed all of the supports on the three floors of the addition so you can see the wide open gallery space. They are starting to put in the windows and it looks wonderful. Take a look.

Here you can see they moved the last of the bound journals from the lower level up to the second and third floor. Most of the journals are at the Laurel Service Center but we've kept some very popular ones and the rest will come back when we have the room.

They have to move the shelving as you can see. There's a lot of shelf brackets going on in this picture.

And voila, here is the first floor. They've put in the lights and have painted and are starting to put in the doors. Finishing touches are going in and we should be moving the end of July.
