Jan. 2 - Alfonso from our maintenance department works on the floors of what was once the garden department, preparing for new fixtures. Guess we won't be needing those old aisle signs you can see in the background anymore.

Jan. 2 - Christopher watches over customer service. Notice the walls above have been stripped bare of what was once metal gridwork (we confess...it was ugly).

Jan. 7 - Hardware/Plumbing manager Jim (yes, there's several Jims at Strosniders) is deep in thought as he surveys some of his department's new fixtures.

Jan. 7 - Receiving manager Jim moves a new fixture into place in what will become our plumbing department. Jim actually worked on our store's last major remodel just about 20 years ago!

Jan. 11 - Paul sets up a lighting valance on a new fixture. (That's remodel talk.) Seriously though, Paul is a jack of all trades and has his hand in virtually every aspect of our remodel so we know exactly who to blame give credit to.

Jan. 11 - Doug has come to Strosniders for the duration of our remodel. He's a freelance fixture building, merchandising specialist who has helped shape up dozens of stores across the country. The photo's a bit blurry, but that's because he moves so fast!

Jan. 11 - Who knew garbage disposals were so exciting? Here we see our hardware/plumbing manager Jim and our True Value representative Joe admiring a new display.

Jan. 16 - General Manager Bill wrestles with some heavy nuts and bolts as they find their new home.

Jan. 16 - Handyman Paul (L) and Store Manager Craig (R) lay down some tile. Although you can't see it in this photo--several staff members are enjoying the view of a manager down on his knees.

Jan. 23 - This is a photo of something quite rare at Strosniders - open space. It came about because a few aisles were torn down prior to the weekend and new ones have not yet arisen. Note the new tile and our friendly electrical staff member Jerreh in the background.

Jan. 23 - This is another view of the open space by our key machine. Since the area is in transition, there is lots of room to mill about. That's our housewares staff member Diana smiling. You'll notice several stacked displays of humidifiers, heaters and batteries courtesy of our electrical manager Ken. You can see him in the background bending over for a box. As long as Ken is around, no real estate at Strosniders will stay vacant.
