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).

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

I love being able to see your progress! Thanks so much for posting the photos.

I've lost track of how many days you have to go. It must be less than a week.
