Thank you Mark for doing this – brings back a lot of memories – some bad… some frustrating …. some good…. but the end result was worth the hassle….I see people over there all the time …..Bud is truly talented……. and so are you and the people who gave their expertise and caring from plants to concrete….. all I can say is this community os blessed with some great people ! Loraine
Lorain definetly has talent. WOW!
Thanks Mark! These photos tell a great story.
A couple of those pictures are from the Lorain Rotary — and, just as soon as we were done and had gotten to our cars, the skies opened up and rain poured furiously.
Fortunately, the storm gave us just enough time to get done . . .
Don’t mean that Rotary gave you photos . . . I meant that Rotary people were IN the photos!
