thirty two: Consult CAD drawings for placement of bushes, flower beds and groundcover. Look up species in American Horticultural Society Encyclopedia of Plants to find out when or if they bloom or bear fruit. Select lichen for bushes, coarse foam for groundcovers, and corresponding colored foam for flowers and berries. |

thirty three: Dot holly bushes around parking lots with glue, dust with red foam for "berries." Vacuum up excess red "berries." |

thirty four: Repeat step thirty-three for hydrangea bushes and flower beds along the magnolia walk. Be sure to put crevice nozzle on vacuum before cleaning up excess colored foam. Park shiny new school bus sideways next to red mini van. (Sure, they can park anywhere they want now. Just wait till we get the white lines on the black top.) |
Step
thirty-five: Place window mullions and clear glass panels for north and south entrances. Cruise red mini van past planter full of pansies and vines by east wing. Don't forget the vroom-vroom noises. Go home and stay up all night trying to figure out how to create the brick for the '38 wing on the computer. |

thirty-six: Continue to place outer walls of building. Fret on the idea that there may not be enough copper sheeting to complete the east (yeah, that is the east) wing. Resign self to having to "copperize" more styrene. |

thirty-eight: Begin work on '38 wing. Cut facade from illustration board, place acetate prints made from CAD drawings for doors and windows. |
Step
thirty-nine: Face with flemish bond (what the heck is that? One long and one short brick, alternating. Didn't know that, did you) brick pattern sheet created on computer, to match actual brick pattern on 38 building. |
