Promoting some old-fashioned hospitality and neighborly banter in Morrison Ranch

Set in Stone

On March 2, I posted about the SanTan freeway (the post was titled "Sharing Community Goals"), and that the grain silos of Morrison Ranch are intended to grace one of the concrete retaining walls on an underpass. Tami Ryall, Gilbert's Deputy Town Manager, saw the post and invited the office out to the construction yard to see the test panel, a 10'x10' section of the wall graphic. We went out this morning, and took a few photos. My third daughter, the artist, selected this one for posting: three of the four tanks are in this part (the fourth will show up to the left of these three) behind a large round hay bale; the graphics on the right are wheat, but they are being adjusted a bit, so this will not be the final look (I wish I could say that I overexposed the wheat on purpose, but that would be untrue). To give a sense of proportion, you can see the water expert and his wife (cousin of the Mister and Bias For Action) standing in front of the graphic.

Thank you, Tami, for the invite! We are excited to see the fruit of your hard work.
