Gord makes the mistake of checking on the exhibit, flooding, making sure the lights are just so. People are streaming in all day, one family of five stays for over 35 minutes. The children really like the work.



Peter isn't even in the building and the red and blue painting in the corner crashes to the ground.



Then a few minutes later, the horizontal painting slides off its metal bar. Patrick sweeps the ice shards and suddenly the crew is back at work; Erik looking for shards left in the snow by the door for new paintings, Gord putting the pieces together, JC & Patrick figuring out the dynamics of what happened.



It was in the warmest corner of the building, and the other painting wasn't supported properly. I notice later that the piece I saved from the dumpster is missing from its place outside in the snow.



Later, after everything has been re-installed, Peter and Erik have their wet feet up near the fire at Cafe des forcats. No one wanted to work today. We're tired of the cold. Jaz is still not really better.
