Howdy all,

Needless to say we had a great time! The masterpiece took a little under three hours to be complete. Domingo almost had a heart attack when the team was placing the top part. You can see Cristian's face and the cans tumbling down.

Congrats to Janella, Veronica, Carol, Domingo, Cristian, and Alvaro for a job well done

Enjoy the photos
