I wish it was that big as you can never have too much storage  :-D
I did want to build it bigger but the City wouldn't let me.
For every sq foot of storage space I have to have X amount of parking and vegetation (Really)
Then, for every sq ft of office space I have to have a greater amount of parking and vegetation.
To top that off, the city is making me recover all the water from the roof and the parking lot and run it through a system that tries to put that water back into the ground.
I have been told that they usually plug up and are a waste of time unless all the property around you does the same thing.
Otherwise their extra water runs onto your property which overloads your system.
Oh well, I guess the bureaucrats have to figure out new ways to justify their jobs which is a oxymoron if you really think about it :-o
If you work for the city, I'm just kidding.... Not really....  :-P

Your close, I live in Springtucky.
My shop is in Eugene  :-)
Yes, we will have local hours.
It will probably be something like 3-5:30 Mon - Fri.
I'm still negotiating with my employees and may hire another depending on how local sales go.
It's been a real bummer not having local pickup but my neighbors were pitching a fit over all the cars and traffic and to be honest, I don't blame them.

I grew up in Elmira..... I knew a guy worked at Eugene Suzuki a long time ago that was about the best bike and jet ski mechanic I have ever worked with.  Good times.  Good luck with your shop,  I will come see you next time I am in your neck of the woods.

I am 1 1/2 hrs south. I am from Riddle exit 103.
We will be at HorseFall on Sunday either bullrun or the beach, if you get the itch to through some sand.

that will be good if you have a store front I occasionally make it to Eugene
