Topping Off!
The final I-beam is hauled up to the top of the building after museum
members, staff, volunteers, and donors celebrated with a fine Cinco
de Mayo lunch. All had signed the beam earlier, making it a time
capsule of sorts.
Instead of the traditional pine tree, we attached a Yucca whipplei to
the beam for good luck. Photo by Tim MurrayMay 5, 2000 |
