Bunch of stuff demolished; new walls up. Things are coming along.

In other new-owner fun I got my first “your pharmacy might be on fire, please go check it” phone call last night.

It was not, in fact, on fire. Nor was anything else. Hope the property management company doesn’t routinely play this game.

Also, it’s 37C here right now and the tail gate on the station wagon is broken. That’s enough for today :)

Here’s the master plan. Done super formally and professionally on an old piece of graph paper I found in my furnace room. Pretty sure that’s how all great business ventures get started. Let’s see what my contractor can do with this…
