Building 944, Project Space East. The prep began. Mainly just acclimated myself to the amazing space I had just been granted. <br /><br />Dinner was great. Of course. Chris Nogoy met me up at the Headlands and we discussed our plans for the following day. 7 am start construction - not a morning person.<br /><br />Day 2<br /><br />Construction starts as planned. I would like to take a moment here, in advance, to thank Chris Nogoy, , Ben Cabrera and Fred Goykhman for their incredibly generous donation of their time and skill. Without them I would not have been able to build the bunker - especially in one day! <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/Sgpl_CozfzI/AAAAAAAAAYc/5x-4krLI1Tg/s1600-h/CIMG5598.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/Sgpl_CozfzI/AAAAAAAAAYc/5x-4krLI1Tg/s320/CIMG5598.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335188842287955762" /></a><br /><br /><br />Pictured: Chris, Ben and Fred<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpnE2FmWvI/AAAAAAAAAYk/0Nym_zDi7Ss/s1600-h/CIMG5549.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpnE2FmWvI/AAAAAAAAAYk/0Nym_zDi7Ss/s320/CIMG5549.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335190041509911282" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgptyXMt0cI/AAAAAAAAAZc/OoDSQ_PFHz4/s1600-h/CIMG5594.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgptyXMt0cI/AAAAAAAAAZc/OoDSQ_PFHz4/s320/CIMG5594.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335197420562010562" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgptewRtvSI/AAAAAAAAAZU/BuO97ZueyVk/s1600-h/CIMG5575.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgptewRtvSI/AAAAAAAAAZU/BuO97ZueyVk/s320/CIMG5575.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335197083696479522" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpsAOc8P0I/AAAAAAAAAY8/u-BTMQ1RfY0/s1600-h/CIMG5551.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpsAOc8P0I/AAAAAAAAAY8/u-BTMQ1RfY0/s320/CIMG5551.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335195459709058882" /></a><br /> <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpsQk3cxaI/AAAAAAAAAZE/fPbiVVfdKqg/s1600-h/CIMG5558.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpsQk3cxaI/AAAAAAAAAZE/fPbiVVfdKqg/s320/CIMG5558.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335195740603729314" /></a><br /> <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpssI7hNYI/AAAAAAAAAZM/97HKBIXXBBM/s1600-h/CIMG5572.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgpssI7hNYI/AAAAAAAAAZM/97HKBIXXBBM/s320/CIMG5572.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5335196214140941698" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7942454339991126264-1472269367258137464?l=reclamationheadlands.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Michael Hallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09649773803415229419noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7942454339991126264.post-61549841189194802402009-05-10T23:16:00.002-07:002009-05-20T21:43:21.078-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgfDM6QCaeI/AAAAAAAAAYM/_hHyrDVjBwY/s1600-h/Picture+3.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 227px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ER0wrERoXXs/SgfDM6QCaeI/AAAAAAAAAYM/_hHyrDVjBwY/s320/Picture+3.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334446910206011874" border="0"></a><br /><br />Above, a rendering of the proposed "bunker" to be constructed in Project Space East, Headlands Center for the Arts, California, in May 2009.
