The Georgetown Branch: Gallery: Drop ceiling, episode 2. 03/14/2004 - Bruce came over again to help me put up more ceiling. We did almost all of the outer edge bracket and connected the electrical circuit for the wall & ceiling outlets. Next up I have to do some finishing work in the room (drywall, painting, trim), hang more brackets here and there, remove the old lights & wire (trash) and connect the "DCC" circuit to the main box. It's coming together.
