 |
| We are going to caulk the edges so we put new tape down to get an even line. |
 |
 |
| Even though it looks uncomfortable, Mike still manages to take a nap. |
 |
| It's our last day in Fort Worth and it's been amazing! Julie and the people of Fort Worth, on the work site and off, have made this a wonderful experience. |
 |
| We are almost finished grouting! |
 | |
| Once we've finished grouting, we can take off the tape. |
 |
| End of day ten! |
 |
| That evening we got a tour of Julie's studio. The Painting in the photo is going in the lobby of the water plant. |
 |
| The last panel. |
 |
| There were 31 panels in this mosaic and #16 happens to be the last one to install. |
 |
 |
| Time to grout. |
 |
| The water filtration area. They call them pools although despite the heat, it's not tempting to jump in. |
 |
| Grouting can still be fun even when it is 88 degrees. |
 |
| End of day nine! |
 |
| Mike trowling over the perfect day eight. |
 |
| Replacing small pieces, one by one... |
 |
| End of day eight! It`s been sunny and hot everyday but it`s also been ridiculously windy! |
 | |
| Mike at his mixing station. |
 |
| While installing, mike uses tape so the piece doesn't sag or move while it's where we want it to stay. |
 |
| Cleaning out the mortar that has come through our newly installed pieces. |
 |
| The crate has functioned as a "back buttering" table, a lunch table and a work space for cutting the top line. |
 |
| End of day seven! |
 |
| Even the back of the piece looks good. |
 |
| It looked like it was going to rain but we've been very lucky avoiding it. |
 |
| End of day six! |
 |
| Our neighbors at the work site |
 |
| Today we are continuing with the fixes... |
 |
 |
| Since we`ve reached the stairs, we have to cut the panel to fit. |
 |
| End of day five! |
