[9.30.08]

Here we are, rapidly approaching October working full force on our site model. [Pictures of our progress will be posted tomorrow] I think all of us wish that we were a little further along than what we are, but it seems as if that is how it always is. We took shifts and spent time all weekend in the model shop cutting out the contours to glue them down to the model's base. Candice and Katie worked hard on the houses; I believe they are finished painting them. This is going to be a very exciting 2.5 weeks; we should have the contours glued down and be building the neighborhoods and retail centers by then. Here are some pictures of us hard at work. Look at the pile of houses on the desk! We should have put them all in a jar and had a contest to see who could guess the right number of houses. They could win a prize, like the day off, or something. Man those contours get confusing if you stare at them for too long, look at our faces. You can see it in our eyes! Just kidding. It does get confusing if you stare at it for long enough though. Anyway, it is going to be very cool when it is all said and done, but until then all we can do is work our butts off. Later!
