I keep thinking about Liam and how excited he must be with that big equipment around. He is fascinated by construction projects the way my brother Paul was when he was a kid. This should take care of any entertainment issues for the rest of the summer!

Look at all that space! It's much easier for me to begin to see it now. Two stories, right?
