It's hard to tell because so far everything has taken MUCH longer than we ever dreamed. We are still shooting for late June - early July.

Lately, all the wet weather has been killing us.

[Bill Wood]

Well, we've hit another snag...
The boundary of our property "may" be considered to contain a creek by the state soil & water folks. Up till now it was classified as "wet weather runoff". A recent inspection has raised doubts. All work has stopped until this is resolved.

Bill,
Does this have the possibility of preventing the shops construction permanently? Just what you needed huh?

[Bill Wood]

No
Worst case, we will have to find another site.
We are lucky that we have not actually closed on this property yet. There is a potential $1,000/day fine that we certainly could not afford!
We should know a lot more next week about the outcome.
Best case, our opening will be delayed until early August.
