Drive By Photo

Next door to The Hive is the Hampton Inn in White Rock. Took this photo on the way out of the parking lot. The Bandelier Inn use to be here. It was torn down to make room for the new (modern) Hampton Inn. It is usually full with visiting Lab workers and contractors. Once in a while, movie stars stay here during filming in the area.

Inside The Hive

Casual sitting area with freeWifi if you buy some goodies (coffee, tea, etc.). The Hive, in White Rock, also has conference rooms of various sizes for rent by the hour, day, week, month. The Hive is also equipped with equipment for machining your next great invention. The Hive is also on Facebook

Pizza Hut

The Pizza Hut in White Rock has been closed for several years with no one moving into the empty building. It was closed long before the Hampton Inn next door replaced the old Bandelier Inn. The Pizza Hut in Los Alamos also closed several years ago as well. But there, a new business moved in. I think now it is a branch of the Los Alamos Medical Center where blood can be drawn for diagnosis.

Successful and Growing Business in White Rock

At one end of the shopping area that is for sale (posted yesterday) is the Bilingual Montessori School which recently moved to this location. Even more recently they expanded and opened a second facility just across the parking lot.

This Entire Complex For Sale

Once a thriving little shopping area with a couple of restaurants, toy store, barber shop, beauty shop, and more is now for sale. After the stores closed, many Lab offices and private contractors for the Labs had offices here. Rumor had it that these would torn down and condo put in their place. That was before the banking slow down and bale outs. There is, however, a thriving daycare center currently at one end of this complex.

Another New White Rock Business?

A really interesting sign for another new business in White Rock. I have NO idea what kind of business it is but I'll find out. I was more intrigued by the design on their sign. The building originally originally a bank branch and later a veterinary clinic. While there are new businesses opening up in White Rock and Los Alamos, several well known businesses in town are going out of business. (Hear that this is a cyber-security business.)

The Hive - New Business Center in White Rock

The Hive's grand opening in a few days. This is a new business where inventors, crafters, lab researchers, and local clubs can rent space and meeting rooms by the day, week or month.  With a new paint job, this building was a movie theater, the White Roxy. The building has housed a veterinarian clinic, restaurants, LANL office spaces, and a Lutheran church in recent years.

Early Morning Snow

Very early morning snow scene Saturday morning (12-3) is the first of a couple of storms and very cold weather predicted over next several days. Brrrrrrrr! PS. Enough snow last night and predicted today that the Los Alamos schools and national labs are closed today (Monday). Single digit temps predicted tonight.

New LAHS. It Was Time

Much good learning and fond memories in the old LAHS....but it was time make room for the new. In looking around the new campus and at the old buildings...I predict it will not be long for more face lifts and changes at LAHS. The older buildings just don't fit in anymore.  I hope to get inside during and open house and take post some interior pictures in the near future.

New LAHS As Viewed From The Science Wing

View of the new LAHS building from the Science Wing at the end of E wing looking towards the north west. D wing would have been just to the right of this view...but is no more.

New LAHS On The Southside

On the south side of LAHS is a large court yard in front of this south entrance to the "commons area." This is about where B and C wings use to be. This picture taken from the west end of E wing for those in the know.

New LAHS North Side

Looking east from the main entrance on the north side of the new LAHS. This is where B and C wings use to be. To the left, out of sight, is Smith Auditorium and the old cafeteria. In distance is the large NE entrance where C wing use to be. It's a two story commons area (I think). Behind is more building where D wing use to be.
Students are scheduled to "occupy" classrooms starting second semester in Jan 2012. It's going to be close.
