Race Seeks Treasures

Race did a walk-thru inspection today looking for loose screws, conduit brackets, bits of wire and junction box slugs that he could pocket and add to his treasure box. I made him leave all the sharp pointed drywall screws. He thought it would be fun to be there while work was going on, but of course it was "too loud", just like Daddy's music and racing.



All of the interior doors were installed today as well as the hand railings for the new stairs and ramp. There is dry wall mud dust everywhere from the sanding, so the drywall guys must be getting close to done.
So, here's something we've learned -- Apparently a building is really just a big balloon and when the HVAC system sucks fresh air from outside, runs it thru the chiller and then pumps it into the store, if we don't give the air a way to get out the whole place will pop and shards of concrete, miscellaneous bits of hardware and body parts will be scattered for miles!!! So, they have to cut a big hole in the wall somewhere and install grills for the air to escape. You've got to be kidding me! Here's a picture of our new grill hole next to the old patio door that is now sealed up.
