When we installed the electrical system in the CRF years ago, we used to tease Mark Valerious that he over built the system to handle electrical needs for the next 50 years or so. It sure looks like he was right after all. It is also nice to see the building to be getting used, and I hope other Friends members get a chance to work over there.

I have to warn you though, it will be much harder to work in the dirt over in Chama after you do!

Right Bill, just crack a roll up door open at each end and the San Luis Valley Zepher just rolls on through. :-)

We had problems with the wind blowing dust from the cement mixer truck getting in the new concrete on the first pour on the north wall. We had to time the door openings to minimize the dust before the track and balast and concrete outside was laid.
