The demolition will not be televised

June 26th, 2008 · Posted by Julie Gomoll

2 white hardhats hanging on white wall. Names on rim: Julie, TinaAfter crossing 713 Ts, dotting 562 Is, and leaving a small tissue sample with the City of Austin, we are finally starting. Yesterday evening, after a frustrating day, I said to Tina “I just want to go to sleep and wake up when the demolition starts.” And damn if Tina didn’t call early this morning, waking me up with “We’re starting, come on down and take the first whack.”

And I did. I took several whacks, as a matter of fact. I got a a good start taking down the marble around a structural support.

Julie looking like a dork in her very own hardhatTina and I even get our own hardhats. I’ve never been so happy to look like a dork as I was this morning :)

The demolition will not be televised, but it will be available via our Flickr Photoset. You can also subscribe to the whole LaunchPad Coworking Flickrstream.

    MEGA-CONGRATS! to Julie and the whole LP team. I’m really looking forward to visiting once it’s all put together … and hopefully being part of making it happen!
