It sure is. I can’t believe 21 years has gone by.


The guys were back today to fill in around the door frames that were built in for the new roll up doors. Since I wanted the metal to match the rest of the building, the corrugated metal from the door was removed.

They cut the metal to size and used it on the door frame. They also said corrugated metal that is this heavy and zinc coated isn’t available today, so it had to be reused.

They bent up metal for the end caps.

This side is finished out except for the door seals. They will finish up the back door tomorrow. Next up will be bringing the shelving, car trailer and vehicles back in. Selectively so it doesn’t get jammed....at least that is the plan.
