Progress or Lack Thereof Report

Welcome to my weekly journal of the construction progress (or lack thereof) of my project Eucalyptus at Beaumont. Everything you are reading is the absolute truth, while some of it is pretty embarassing for me personally, other parts exhibit some pretty amazing conquests for which I am very proud of.

If you are considering building something like this, it is a good read into what I have been up against in bringing something like this to market. The time and financial constraints are mind boggling. In looking back at the last three years, I am simply amazed that I have endured this as long as I have.

So sit back, grab a cup of coffee, and be glad it is not you.

March 23rd, 2009 - My Last Blog Entry

After two weeks of 4:00 AM to 6:00 PM of endless work, the project has finally completed.

The white knuckle schedule went like this-

Wednesday the carpet was installed
Thursday the furniture was delivered
The Mural went up on Thursday
The electricity went on Friday at 4:15 PM

At 7:30 PM on Friday, I walked to my truck across the street to get a broom. At that moment, the exterior lights went on for the first time. It was a balmy evening, with no wind and buttermilk skies. The sun was below the horizon, with it's final rays flickering in the west.

The building came alive at that moment. The soft muted flood lights bathed the front of the building with a golden glow, still showing the muted colors on the front of the building. The blue mural of the lake in Banff was visible through the front glass. The interior lights shown like stars. The building at that moment was alive and fully animated, like a new born baby, eyes open for the first time.

Welcome to the world.

That moment, 7:30 PM, March 20th, 2009, was the pinnacle of my career. "I pulled it off", I said to myself. "I really pulled it off".

I cannot for a moment take all the credit for this accomplishment. I have to give all the credit to my wife and kids. They have been simply amazing by enduring all my ups and downs through these years; the most difficult years of my life. I cannot begin to remember how many times my wife Michelle has picked me up off of the floor when I really felt this entire project was going to collapse. Never for a moment did she ever doubt the eventual success and completion of this project. She was the strength I needed. I will never be able to express my gratitude and thanks for her support. Without her, this could have never been done.

At dinner last night, my eight year old son asked me if I was going to make a lot of money on this project. I responded "It does not matter how much money you make. If you do it just for the money, you are doing it for the wrong reason".

"Do what you love, and the money will follow".

I hope that sticks with him for a long time.

Thank you to all of you for your support all these years. Your e-mails and letters have been appreciated. I have saved all 9,946 of them. It has been an amazing journey. Thank you for allowing me to share with you.

This concludes my blog on this project.

3 years, 2 months, 23 days.

We are done.


2009 Our project is now completed and ready for business
