December 23, 2009.
This is Engelbrecht House, the academy's amazing student mansion.
Our students stay here for free.
This is the gate that leads from the vast limestone parking rock
into the Welcome Center garden.
To the right is the rock and Tuscan Hall.
To the left is the Welcome Center.
This is the Wizard Academy Welcome Center and Bookstore viewed
from the opposite direction. Pretty impressive world headquarters, huh?
The Canadian Diamond Pavilion is on the cliff-trail that leads to
Chapel Dulcinea and it shares a similar view with her.
The pavilion is used mostly for small wedding receptions,
champagne toasts and the occasional outdoor lecture.
Here's that vast limestone parking rock we mentioned earlier.
Seriously, it's not cement. It's a perfectly level limestone slab.
We just hosed it off and began parking on it.
Here's the new Bell Wall funded by Michele Miller-Nelson's Belles of LaMancha.
The gathering place in front of the wall is Steve Rae Plaza, Where Music Fills the Air.
Looking through the portal toward Tuscan Hall
Crossing the Water at night. Another doorway lies ahead.
Yes, that's a flame in the midst of the water.
Figure it out?
A glimpse inside Tuscan Hall.
The Quixote Collection is displayed on the catwalk above.
Below is the other end of Tuscan Hall.
When the screen is lowered, the projector fills it
from the projection booth (seen in the upper photo.)
A group of students from Hewlett Packard.
Why does everyone who comes here look so happy?
Princess Pennie at the Mench Bench on the trail to Engelbrecht House.
This is entrance to the storage building we call The Alamo Shed.
It's a beautiful, one and a half story stucco building that Daniel built for less money
than what it would have cost us to have one of those small, tacky pre-built units delivered.
You gotta love having a builder on staff.
Chapel Dulcinea dangles her legs daringly
off the edge of a cliff as she sits on an ancient walking trail.
It's a wonderful place to sit and think.
Visitors are always welcome.
Academy Architect Marley Porter stands in front of Denny House,
the residence of Wizard Academy's on-site property managers.
Move the scroll bar under the photo to see the Bell Wall panorama.
Go through the gate to the far right and you'll find Chapel Dulcinea down that path.
The gate straight ahead takes you down to Engelbrecht House.
