26-28 September 2002I was out of town for a few days, so I did not get to drive by the chapel. However, my brother went by and took a few pictures. As I look over the site, nothing new strikes my memory. Maybe the rain scared them off for a couple of days. |

25 September 2002About two thirds of the floor was poured today. They also worked on both entrances, laying the drainage pipe and then covering with rocks so they can pour the asphalt on top. |
|
They also worked hard on the rebar. Most of the building looks like it has the rebar in place for the concrete. The only area I noticed that was missing was the bathrooms.
19 September 2002The framers were there again today putting together pieces of walls. The plumber was also there today still running water and sewer lines in the floor. |
18 September 2002While we do not yet have a floor, we do have a storage building. The framers put together the out building today.I also went by at lunch to see what they were working on. They are still running utilities throughout the floor of the building. I watched as they ran some of the sewer lines (guessing by the size of the pipe). |

The framers continued framing today. But they had no where to put the walls because the floor is still not in. They just stacked them off to the side.
I also saw them digging where I expected the baptismal font to be. Guess we will see soon enough.
The construction crew seems eager to get started framing the building. Today a whole bunch of lumber showed up at the chapel. I even watched them construct a few walls. They walls are not up yet because they still have not poured the floor. Hopefully we will see the floor in the next few days.
I also noticed a man standing in a large hole in the ground in the middle of the building. It took me a minute to decide that he could
have been standing where the baptismal font will be. However, it was in a part of the building where I didn't think the font was going.
I hope I can somehow get a floor plan of the building so I can tell where things are supposed to be.
18 September 2002...I have now seen the floor plan. He was indeed standing where the baptismal font will be.
I didn't notice any activity today.
Sorry I didn't get a picture last night. I had too many things to do before the BYU football game. And I didn't get a chance to get the picture.
I can see they worked some on the storm drains for the parking lot. It looks as if they installed some of the drains on the north side of the chapel.
Today I watched as they were spreading out the gravel around the trenches for the utilities. They were using the green bobcat you can see in the picture.
Again I couldn't tell what work had been done. They are doing detail work on the utilities that I can't see from across the street.
Today was one of those days where I really didn't notice any work. Except for the fact that the yellow caution tape appeard today. Centrainly, they did more work than that. I just couldn't tell from across the street.
