I found some time this weekend to have a little fun working on my Sign Invitational entry. I finished the brickwork on the bottom section of the building, built the loading dock and polished off the porch roof over the steam boiler as well as the detail on the back of the delivery van.Next up are the loading dock details. Stay tuned…
Stopping traffic
We’ve noticed a changing traffic pattern in our little town since we began the construction of the Hazelnut Inn. Locals are walking by a little more, intent on seeing the latest changes. Those who drive by in their cars slow down and often stop for a quick photo. When I am in town and someone notices the logo on our truck doors, instead of asking if we own ‘the house’ in Yarrow, they now ask what we are building next door. With each installation of a large piece the curiosity and anticipation grows. We suspect that the interest will grow dramatically when the rest of the ship and a few other pieces are installed in a couple of weeks. They haven’t seen anything yet!
Seven weeks and counting to IAAPA
The International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions EXPO is now just over seven weeks away and we are busy readying our display booth for this year. We will make a few more small revisions to the display and the centrepiece will be swapped out. The booth now sports a new coat of bright blue paint which we will age and distress next week. We’ll have it ready in plenty of time to transport to the show. Our booth number this year is 856 and we look forward to meeting a lot of new people at the show and saying hello to our long time friends who attend.
