Wonderful post! I can’t wait to see the finished Loblolly, but I’m glad you are giving grace on the timeline!
You amaze me with your organization CoCo. Now, this is what I need to do, instead of what’s for dinner in 30 minutes? I checked out several of this, and the spicy chicken tacos sound delicious!
