Come on! We\u2019re going over the bridge here at Lazy F and we\u2019re going to go up to the building site.<\/p>\n

On our left is the current dining hall, over to the right is Ridgeview, and right where that big dirt pile is, that\u2019s where the plaza is going to be. It\u2019s going to be about the same size as what the building is going to be. So, it\u2019s going to be about 6,000 square feet, its going to have a great view of the ridge line and the cross; its going to have a view of the creek. There\u2019ll be a gas fireplace, some plantings, some steps and some benches where people can be. So, about 6000 square feet, it\u2019s going to be a great setting, a great place for people to gather outside.<\/p>\n

Obviously its winter here, its been cold but things are still progressing here. We are in an opening for one of the five garage doors, restaurant garage doors. There is going to be five of them that face the north and the ridge line.<\/p>\n

The forms are right here, the rebar is in place, there\u2019s some coils that are here. There\u2019s a setup that we have that\u2019s a diesel fired heater and there\u2019s some tubes that go all around where the forms are. We\u2019re getting ready to pour the concrete in the next couple of weeks, the forms will be done, I\u2019ve been told from the general contractors that they can pour concrete when its zero degrees, they just put some additive into the concrete.<\/p>\n

Our goal is to have this poured, to have all the stem walls up, so then the ceiling will be on, the roof will be on. And then the walls will be also up so they can keep working during the middle of the wintertime.<\/p>\n

At this point our gap is just under $200,000 to reach our goal of $1.75 million. So we ask for your involvement, however you may do it, we appreciate your support. It could be cash, credit card, check, auto-pay, whatever it is, a one-time gift or a pledge over time.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re almost there! You can see that we\u2019re making great progress. We need to bring this thing home and we deeply appreciate how you have been involved in the past. Or if you\u2019re thinking about of being involved for the first time, now is the time to jump on board because this thing is happening.<\/p>\n

Thanks again for your help and Merry Christmas!<\/p>\n
