Los Amigos Chapter

 

The  new clinic building is located on the west side of the cannery building at Lopez Matoes and is owned by the cannery.  The cannery has run water and electricity up to the building.  We will do all internal electrical and remodel all 3 bathrooms.  In addition, a new  roof is being installed. Internal remodeling includes a new central hall with entrances to each room. The new roof will cover the present open area and provide additional working space.

And in the beginning it wasn't much

Looking west toward the ocean. Phil and Vic in the future dental clinic. Looking at the south side of the clinic bldg.  
   
     

   And now it is even less.

Destruction begins, off with the old roof and let's add a few new doorways

We had some problems with the hyperlinks for the pictures below, so the thumbnails are not working from this point until the November pictures.  (In otherwords, you can't click on them to enlarge them, so you'll have to use your imagination.   Sorry.....
