Well things are just about complete with the grand addition. We've had workmen around everyday for weeks and weeks now, since June 30th, 2012.. The residents enjoyed watching the new wing take shape over the last seven months. And the occupants of the beautiful new rooms are happy too.
The activity/dining areas have had a wall and closet removed plus new flooring, lighting and entrance doors installed. Contemporary window dressings and wall paper are coming too. Combined with our million dollar view of the hills of Crapaud, the dining area is very attractive. The larger space will lend itself well to a sit- down tea at Mother's Day for example and our annual Christmas Family Party.
On Wednesday February 27th, we will have a busy day. The Ukulele Orchestra will meet and rehearse in the morning and then Young at Heart Musical Theatre for Seniors performs in the afternoon, in our newly renovated activity room. And that is going to be wonderful as usual.
We've had a real Island winter this year with lots and lots of snow and cold wind. And the is just how winter is supposed to be. It's cozy indoors at the Villa and with all the excitement of the build the winter had passed quickly. We look forward to another spring full of surprises.
