Dave explains, “The visitor center is self-sustainable. It has a big generator, along with solar
panels on the roof. They run everything. Then, there is the water system. We get our water from the lake and the system filters
it. The waste water goes in to a septic
system.”
“Nice,” Deacon and Greg exclaim simultaneously.
Dave leads them down one of the halls to an elevator. They all go in as Dave pushes the B on the
panel. Instantly, Deacon realize that
there are actually three floors in the large building, instead of the two they
could see from the exterior. The hidden
one being the basement, which is what the B represented on the panel in the
elevator. Showing the group the string
of offices Dave explains that if they clean out all of the office furniture,
they could use them as bedrooms. Jeff comments
that this place is bigger than he had thought.
They walk through the halls opening up all the doors, to take in their
new residence. At the end of the hall stand
two doors. One with a lady painted on it
and the other with a man. Alicia and
Lana ask if they are the bathrooms.
“Sort of, they are shower rooms,” Dave answers.
They peek inside and Dave tells them that they have all of
the amenities of home.
Greg puts his hand on Dave’s shoulder, “This is home now.”
Dave leads them back to the elevator. They go to the main floor, where they had
entered through the big entry room. There
a dozen, or so offices, two big conference rooms, and a cafeteria with a large dining
area.
Finally
the top floor containing three larger office like rooms, a small kitchenette, and
a large observation room that leads out to an observation deck. Both of which overlook the island. Lana asks
what kinds of animals live on the island.
“There are deer, a pretty good size herd of
buffalo, antelope, and elk. Not to
mention all the fish you could eat and the island has the most beautiful birds.
There are ducks, geese, pheasants and several
different kinds of grouse.” Dave
answers.
