Baker Demolition Posted Tuesday, January 4, 2011 05:22 PM I don't know what possessed me to take off and go to Baker this afternoon, but around 3pm I was playing one of my guitars and I just decided to put it up, hop in the car and drive over. I'm glad I did. The first thing I saw as I came across Victory Drive there at Gus's Drive Inn was a Reeves Wrecking trailer in front of the school. So I went across Victory Drive, pulled through the loop in front of the school and drove around to the side of the building where the fire occurred. I spoke with one of the Reeves workers and he told me that the boss was in the back parking lot where Girls Inc is at. I pulled around there got out of my car and introduced myself to a group of gentleman. After finding out who was in charge I spoke with the gentleman and he told me that they were going to finish cleaning up the front side where the debris from the fire is at, in the morning. Once they get the licenses they need to remove the asbestos signed which will be in the morning they will begin knocking down some interior walls to the school sometime tomorrow so that they will have access to the asbestos they are going to be removing. In a nutshell the demolition is going to start tomorrow. There won't be any wrecking balls knocking down walls, it will be torn down with what the crew foreman said would be a claw. Wrecking balls had gotten too dangerous. So folks tomorrow is the day. I'm at a loss for words as to what to say. Something that means so much to so many is going to be taken away from them. I just don't know what to say except that the ol' girl did her job well and she will certainly be missed by many. Take care my Brothers and Sisters, John John Crimmel 70 |
