Dave,

The day is drawing closer.

I would like to take this opportunity, personally, to wish you all the best
in your venture. It has been a pleasure to watch your project grow from day
1, and I am sure, I am not alone, in passing on my heartfelt regards.

If you ever franchise your operation, let me know if you fancy opening a
branch in the UK:-)

Best wishes from this side of the pond, and feel free to eject Nick (aka ol'
crackers) and tell him never to return.

I 2nd that as well. When I come to Portland Or next June, my bro & I talked
about making a trip to see the operation and taste some of the great BBQ
served. Hats off to you for pulling thru this long and difficult process.
Now Wash state has some real BBQ to eat!!!

Yes...best of luck Dave, and I wish I could be there to taste some of what
you've been talking about and others have taken pictures of. (just call me
Mr. Grammar...)

I'll be doing a Boy Scout thing this weekend, eating food cooked by
teenagers. Sometimes that's a sarcasm real treat. /sarcasm

To everyone else, have just enough fun, OK?

Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake
when you make it again.

Best of luck, Break a leg. May you have fair winds and following seas. May
the road reach up to meet your feet, etc. Congradulations.

Indeed - here's wishing a succussful enterprise. I only occasionally get
out to WA - but when I do, it's usually SEA and Spokane - so perhaps I can
sneak in a trip on my next visit - whenever that is.

I've been amazed at how this has gone, I wouldn't have given much for the
chances of getting this open on time 2 months ago - but Dave has really
worked wonders - I'm impressed.

I do have to wonder about the grand opening party (?). I'm sure everyone
will have a great time, but if I were a customer I'd have to wonder about a
BBQ joint that isn't open when I want dinner. I'm assuming the 7PM closing
is just for this Saturday?

Best of luck to Dave - (and congrats to the happy couple...)

Yes, Dave. Have a great time and a long, profitable relationship with
your customers (one of which I hope to be in the future).
