Okay, I promise to get off this but I had to post photos of the carpet. A little back story first: the entire week we were attending the aforementioned meeting, men were working inside this um, lodge, replacing carpet. Apparently there was a small fire inside last November and the sprinkler system activated and soaked everything leaving the 37 year old carpet (yes, it had never been replaced) to molder away all winter. I could take this opportunity to launch into an entire separate post about the air quality inside the bunker they held our meeting in but I digress.
The polka dot carpet was from the ladies' room and this other, what's the word?, patterned carpet is what they laid inside the entire building. I was just a little amazed that they had the opportunity to update this relic of a building and this is what was chosen. In describing it to my daughter I told her it looked just like the flocked wallpaper that was in the hallway of an apartment we lived in back in surprise! 1972!
I assume that they are not taking out the old tufted Naugahyde fronted bar or conversation pit, either. Too bad the fire didn't spread just a little more.
