Good one!
But we’re gonna have to shove hard to cramboth into Air Force 1.

The beams are all in at the restaurant. Walls have gone up, the bar was framed......things are moving really fast. My daughter took on the task of converting the former porch into her office. She insulated the walls and put in laminate flooring they salvaged from the main room. She has been putting up wall board, too. Even the contractors were in awe as she used a table saw. So proud of her.

Some people will just crambo
And think it full of style

But they’re just Juvenile.
