Love the show Chris. Really excited to follow your business journey, as well. In fact, I think that documenting the store progress would be a fun element to add to the show. Consider it. I’ll stop by next time my travels bring me to Chicago.
Thanks for the comment. What sort of progress are you interested in seeing?
Chris

No glassware yet…dragging my feet on that – I admit it!
Some looks at the store as it grows or matures, basically. Looking back, I’d love to have something like that documented for my biz. Again, best of luck.
