We've got two guys here for a few weeks from Ohio, who are just helping out with projects at the Château during our annual winter lull in the busy schedule. This is practically the only time we don't have groups, so it's nice to have some help tackling all the little projects that build up. They've helped clean out the gatehouse attic (unfortunately, we didn't take any "before" pictures). There was a lot of stuff left up there from when Editions Cle used the building as an office (maybe a decade ago??). They've built some shelves in the Château attic to organize a bunch of files we store up there, are helping dig the trench for the foundation of an extended patio, fixed the trap door on the tower, and lot of other miscelaneous small projects.
The Trapdoor going up to the top of the tower - finally finished (Rob Saunders started it in 2005, Owen Heisey worked on it some summer 2008, and Michael Gibson finished in January 2009 - never knew it was such a big project :)
The Gatehouse attic - all cleaned out (except for a few buckets to catch the major drips. It actually only took one full van-load to get rid of most of the old stuff.
Fixing a sharp edge on the swingset, that was a little dangerous for kids
