Nice to meet you Doug! Sounds like you wear many hats at Vintaj.
Hey, I’ve got a lot of remodeling jobs that need to get done, so if you’ve got some spare time just come on down! But please leave your chickens at home (a lingering fear of getting my eyes pecked out when I was very young and had to gather eggs from some very protective hens).
