Darcy, it's actually WARM today ...+20
when you live in below zero for a few weeks, anything above zero is hot!

Because this building was previously a vet clinic, EVERY room had a sink in it. The owner had to tear walls with plumbing all out! The price of copper is one thing to defer the cost, but ya gotta hide the copper from the meth heads that take it in for money so they can buy more meth. What kind of world is this?

Are people going to go to restaurants for the FOOD? that's just crazy!

Mike: I understand where you are coming from., meth is a HUGH problem here in small town KY. Everyday in the newspaper it says "so and so' was robbed of "X" amount of copper pipe. And they thought the 60's and early 70's were crazy with the "pot" smokers. Geez, all the pot smokers just wanted is a big hero sandwich to eat like in your picure and to be happy with the world....I miss the old days. Although I am no ones critic...keep up the fantastic work Mikey...your work is the tops! Maybe the meth heads will eat your signs and forget about the friggin meth!!!

Very nice Mike, I would put a bug in her ear about the future.

As her business grows adding a few more items would be pretty cool.

If ordinence will allow anymore.

hey Thanks Barb! This customer was great..I showed them a black and white skecth, they said, "great! Get it done, here's half!"

These people are few and far between. That's why I go above and beyond for them. I get it done EARLY, I install in almost impossible conditions and situations. Some do really appreiciate it. Most do not. Anyway, Sam, the ordinance does allow for more, she just wants to get up and running....I suggested a nicely done Van for her deliveries that will get her name out there even more!

Now I need to finish this with a bit of smart PR for her AND myself....instead of the same old boring picture of the building from too far away....I will take a picture of me on ladders with my truck, when the dumpster is moved, and the shadow is not on it..and email to the paper. She gets publicity and so do I. A win-win.

If this is the game, hey, put me in coach!

Mike, that would be what they called a "Royal". It is fried Italian sausage, cappacola (Italian spiced ham), and slices of cheese. Yours also had full flavor mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, banannananananananananana peppers, and a big 'ol bunch of red onion on a toasted Italian roll.

It is somewhat of a specialty of Western New York. I have not seen them anywhere else. I think your customer needs to have these.

I want one for breakfast.

Thanks Rusty, it may appear as if we are standing on the dumpster, but there was just enuf space for our ladders, it did make a nice shelf for the signs, and screw bucket and drill!

Mike, now those Aussies would have you add some more veggies. They have a salad in a sandwich! Naw, the sandwich is cool as the old time look, I like it! Did you router your own letters or do you have them done somewhere?
I hope people know how valuable trash cans can be!
I remember the days on location where that was the only place to pounce my pattern, ha. Yep, I remember those days, but watch out for people sleeping in them!!!

The trick is finding a dumptster with a vacancy near your favorite restaurant, then all you have to do is fight off the cats for supper.

I'm north of where the devastation was.I am lucky as I only need to repair parts of my roof from heavy winds.The lay of the land here is rather hilly,lots of hollers and those hills they call mountains. It seems like tornadoes only ravage flatland.
