A kudo to spirit

Post by CB, Sandpoint Online staff
The lunchtime buzz: Ran into Dan Fogarty, a local contractor who's been volunteering at the site, at Truby's on Main Street (where you can get a terrific enchilada soup on Fridays). Dan says working on the project has been an amazing experience. There have been almost too many volunteers at times, leaving some with not enough to do, but the job has been running like clockwork on its very accelerated schedule. Dan said the extreme schedule means some parts of construction are definitely rushed - think, paint drying and caulk curing - but overall he thinks the family is getting a very well-built home. And the spirit of the volunteers and everyone involved in the job has been great. Dan's got his own website at DanBuilt.com.

The buzz from the spectator site is, the crowds are growing and some have had a bit of a wait to catch the buses out or back. Despite the anticipated crush of spectators for the "reveal" tomorrow, a few calls around town show that as of the moment, several local hotels still have vacancies.
