4 days in

Sorry, I'm behind on these Thurtene blogs. But, lets back track to Tuesday, things are still mostly wooden boxes, but you can start to understand what the plan is at least.
The outside starts to take shape, the stage goes up so the cast can practice, decorations begin etc.

I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Siding goes up on the outside. That same siding taken off a barn that they bought on craigslist for $150.

This is only in here because I can point to it and say "I did that" 

Last year, I built that reference desk for the entrance of our library. Now it's a chop saw table. NBD

Here is the stage as it is going in. The stage this year was huge. And you know whats a challenge? Building a flat stage on uneven ground...

These pictures were taken on Wednesday night. I think this was the transition where it became really clear that this was going to be an awesome facade.

This is the right side of the facade. The wall that juts out is an outhouse and the whole thing got the siding put on it.

Inside started to look really good once the paper mache trees were added, shockingly good considering they were made out of chicken wire. Go artsy people!

I finally figured out that these pieces were the cabins of the two "competing camps" for the skit. little details like framing them out really just helped it all come together.

Here is one last picture showing how super safe this whole event is. Climbing on the roof putting up the vaulted roof. Very safe Matt. Glad you didn't die.

I've got awesome photos of all the facades, not just ours on both Friday night and again on Saturday, its quite amazing how much changes with 12 hours of work that everyone puts in on Friday night. The rule is that you have to be off the lot by 8am on Saturday morning. Most groups work all through the night trying to get as much done as possible.
