Do you happen to have any digital scans of those documents, Zach? I'd be very interested in seeing them.

I also can't forget to thank those who have prayed for my friend's mom. You may not even know it, but you've helped in some way to make life better for someone you don't know and probably have never met. Your kindness will certainly be rewarded in some way, so if some unexpected positive event happens to you sometime in the near future, know that it is more than just good fortune; you're being blessed. When you acknowledge your blessings, they continue! I hope you are greatly blessed for your kindness and thanks to all of you once again. :)

It's so sad to see these buildings are gone now. But there is some good news with my friend's mom. She is continuing to make some progress and her feeding tube should be removed any day now, if it hasn't been already because she can eat on her own now. She seems to have no cognitive damage to her brain from the tests that the doctors have done, just seems that it is mostly motor skills that were damaged by the stroke. She's able to say "yeah" in response to questions, but not much else yet. She has been laughing with friends and family when they visit her and is completely aware of everything around her. I hope to go with my friend to visit her sometime over the next few days.

Stare girl-YES. I'm IN FOR IT! That sounds like an amazing idea! Although demolition has already begun at Davners. =(. I wish they wouldn't touch that goddamn Kirkbride. I can understand the other buildings, but that Krikbride...the main structure is just so beautiful.

me and my friends are from washington. We just recently took a trip up to the place. It's really sad to see the place go. It was really cool. We went at night so we wouldn't get any trouble from authority. And let me tell you we experienced some pretty amazing phenomenon with sounds and stange things happening.

Everything is almost gone. Anybody know why they haven't completed the demo yet. And what about the underground tunnels.
