Hi again "Mr. Shave"

Thanks for sharing the photos. It's great that you're capturing the memories pre-opening so you can go back and see all of the progress you've made. "Before and after" photos are fun to see.

Best wishes for a smooth 11 days (and more).

Rose

Looks like a lot of construction going on. Are you sure you're going to be ready in 10 days?

Hang in there.

I thought I could build the truck in a "few months" ended up taking over 2 years
so based on that I feel pretty confident

Kevin welcome to coffee forums Thank you for the invite but I love "speciality coffee", human interaction, and providing both a unique and superior product. Unfortunately OG doesn't fufill any of these requirements.Best of luck spamming the forums

Hey Mr Shave, congratulations on your coffee shop! I tried to open one years ago with a friend but unfortunately my partner backed out :( I wish you all the best!

Thank you for the kind words. Fingers are crossed :D
