Blast From the Past: Marge Baker

Very cool that Marge still has friends like this looking out for her. She still calls us on occasion to help with minor household needs.

Marge is a former Easterday Construction Co., Inc. employee, working for us into her 70’s. She was always a cheerful influence around the office and a huge “Company Woman”. She would always promote Easterdays and was thrilled with the logo-wear we would give out at times during the year. The last time I saw her she had to show me the hat she still had. I would have given her another, but she was still keeping that one in immaculate condition.

It’s hard to believe that she’s still going strong at 87. We all wish her many more good years. It’s a loss to the town that we don’t see her peddling her old blue bike with the big basket on the front around anymore. She was one of Culver’s iconic fixtures.

Sand Hill Farm Apartment Rendering

Apartment Rendering from SRKM Architecture

Here’s a cool “aerial” rendering of what the base two bedroom apartment layout will look like at Sand Hill Farm. This same layout will be repeated throughout the units. The one bedroom units will be sans the back bedroom and bathroom. The three bedroom units will have stairs from the living room to the third floor bedroom. We’re considering faux wood laminate floors and a gray & white color scheme. Leave your thoughts in the comments if you want to provide input.

Thanks SRKM for the visual!

Charley Creek Inn Ribbon Cutting

Ribbon Cutting for the Courtyard – May 5, 2017

I’ve been a little slow getting things up on the site this summer. There’s been a lot going on. Thanks to the Wabash Plain Dealer for the picture from the event.

Howard Kaler, General Manager of the Charley Creek Inn, tells me that the Courtyard has been an enormous success. There are already over 20 different events scheduled in the Courtyard in July. We’re pretty proud of it. You can see additional pictures here. There are some additional pictures elsewhere in the blog showing the construction.

I recommend that you check it out if you’re in the area. Heck, personally I think it’s worth a special trip!

Congratulations to Jennifer Martin and Country Auto Center

Congratulations Jennifer! It’s always nice to see our friends, clients and business partners succeed. In this case, we count Jennifer and Country Auto Center as all three. (The article to the right appeared in the February 4-5, 2017 edition of the Pilot News.)

We have worked with Country Auto Center and Jennifer & Joe Martin on several expansions over the years including their most recent facade update and vehicle birthing room addition. We have also purchased our last three vehicles from them as well as one corporate vehicle.
