I put together a slideshow of old photos, and pictures of the burnt building, its demolition, and the construction of the new office. I set it to loop on all the monitors. We had lots of visitors come by, most strangers to me but a few familiar faces. I&#8217;m not much of the mingling type and felt more inclined to sit at a computer but I think I still enjoyed it.
