Spartanburg Day School hired a construction crew to build a new high school building that will also house new administrative offices. I love seeing the changes every day as I drive by the school. Today, the crew made some major changes by adding steel beams to create a skeleton for the upcoming roof. Here is my shot of the inside of what will be the new roof.

My older son and I visited the Cherokee Springs Fire Department today. They held a hotdog, drink, look at the engines, and play for free day from 11:00-4:00. I climbed the rock wall and made it to the top! While we were there, I took close-up shots of the ladder truck and got this great shot of the pressure dials.

Dumpster. Probably not the most popular picture to blog about.

I am not a pure go green person. We recycle some at home. Milk jugs and cardboard boxes go to the dump (no trash pick up unless we pay for it). Newspapers go into the wood stove in the winter time. We don't have an electric vehicle. I sort of recycle at school.

However, this picture does bother me. What could have been recycled? I know the school throws out an obscene amount of food. Teachers have asked about that, and we were told that the food could not be given to churches or other charity.

Too many more thoughts to put here....

These boxes were stacked outside of the cafeteria. I am assuming the gray thing behind the boxes is an intake or outtake filter for the cafeteria. Anyway, I loved the lines and thought this was an interesting picture.
