Installing a Show in Orinda's Library

Today's a big day. A dog is always ready to help and I'm no exception. I can tell that something's up as the human is up hours before usual so I'm keeping close at paw. Sometimes a dog riding shotgun can make a big difference.

Yesterday the artist spray painted more tabletop easels with evil dusty black paint. I tell you, it's a dirty job around here doing security. Spray glue too, to mount wall text onto foam core. You have to be sure to know where the wind is blowing and stay clear of it. We've been spending more time than usual going from one work station to another in the studio all day. There's the gallery front room and all the way back to the 5 x 15' table. 7000 sq ft can mean a lot of trotting travel.

Today's job includes front door security. It's going to be tough as the crew will be lugging art to the big red horse, Lumbar Jack. In and out, in and out... it'll be one continuous question of who comes thru that door. Then there's the idiot check, which means looking around to figure out just what might be accidently left behind. Hope that's not me tho a long nap would be ideal after the work. A guy's gotta take a rest now and then with a big job like mine.

I'll post some photos of the show later.
