More jack hammers, cement saws and pounding to break up the slab that formed the foor of the hall.Back hoe in to dig out roots and carefully locate the water line that wasn't marked out by Miss Dig etc. A line was found about 5-1/2feet down and will "not" interfere
with excavation area. The outside spigot will be cut and capped. We were closed when the dust streamed in and the noise was too loud to talk.

Interesting event across the street--
a wild turkey walking down the sidewalk towards the museum. When animal control and a police officer attempted to catch it in a net, the turkey took wing and crossed over to Nixon's parking lot. There the turkey and the officer played chicken until the net re-appeared and once again it
flew off headed north.
Now and again I'll put in some pictures of the Ford-Bacon House and library life from the past.
This photo shows former
Library Director(1956-1962), Harold Martelle, checking out the first book on the microfilm charging system to Dr Frank Kilts, then President of the school board.
A photo of the Carnegie Library in use from 1915 to 1940, the cornerstone of this builing is at the Vinewood entrance of Bacon Library.
