I wish that I had pictures of the work that was done. I had them in an old phone that was stolen. I do have pictures of the flagstone floor inside of one of the condos and of beginning the flagstone work in the 2 courtyards. I was supposed to be part of the renovation of the 20 condos out back, but the contractor that I worked for was let go before starting those.

Both my mother and grandmother lived there and were extremely active with the facility. My mother died just before Hurricane Katrina - thank goodness she did not live through that. GREAT memories of a wonderful location. Will this be available to the public to see as the renovation goes on? My mother was President of the Grievance Committee (a/k/a Civic Association) and my grandmother was responsible for creating the library mostly on donations from the community. It was awesome! Best wishes on your project.Betty LeBlanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03235879542456930992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7501140616891435984.post-48104318425800998742010-12-30T14:31:55.294-06:002010-12-30T14:31:55.294-06:00I actually used to work as a CNa ther.

They weren't in stock yet, but I talked to one of the designers of the line (Jolie, I think). She was so nice and helpful.<br /><br />P.S.
