Posted by Christopher Burnett on

As you can tell from the title, the summer heat and humidity are setting in here in Kentucky!

See the end of the blog for two pictures of Week 3's building progress. Hope everyone is staying healthy during this time of Covid-19!  As you may have seen on our FB post on 4-29-2020, the GATS show in Dallas has been cancelled for August 2020.
