Without Lifting A Finger

Old: Gathering weeds. New: Love the composite beams (though I wonder how that looks in the future: cost and procedural inconvenience of replacement: we have them in my condo complex and its a mess). The library employee (squeezing through the temporary gate) said the new library will open 9/1/19 (she also said the big holdup is making sure the books are in order). I may have misheard her because the red-faced security guard, assuring me that Abe wouldn't go anywhere, said: 9/21/19. Then mumbled something about the grand opening. *

Presented by the Class of 1928. Looks like the sculptor was Max Bachmann (see below and this link ). It's acquired a few stray "signatures" over the years, but other than that it's in pretty good condition.
