Everything is off the field on the softball field and they are doing dirt work today so that's started. Baseball is maybe two weeks out but there's enough time to get it done. I've seen some of the underground drainage pipes already on site.Quote:

Camera seems down for baseball for a few days. Softball, they are leveling out the field. Looks great. Some lights are in for that facility.
Looped by the field this morning. It was good to see they've started clearing the field of play. Debris is getting stacked for removal.
Does anyone know if there are plans to move these cameras so the progression of work on the field and seating areas can be watched?Quote:

....good stuff. Thanks for the updates. Please keep 'em coming for those of us not living in God's country.Quote:

Lots of exterior brick going up, just not in areas you can see on camera. Maybe in a day or two. Would take some pictures to post but I know I won't be able to get them to upload.
By the way, I have the same problem. I always have trouble uploading pics that I've taken with my own cell phone. Why is that?Quote:

Was in Ruston today and took the opportunity to swing by the new construction. The baseball stadium is looking good. It's bigger, or taller at least, as viewed from the intersection of Alabama and Tech Drive.

Love Field is asymmetric. Needs more structure down the right field line for balance. Maybe some of kind of cheap seats with a beer garden!
Symmetric baseball fields/stadiums are boring.

They're hanging the last of the steel for the softball ticket office/ concession stand/ restroom building. That's really going to be a nice facility.
