Alot added in 2 week’s time. We went to 2 frag shows and got some mega deals. Plus Chandler Rocks www.chandlerrocks.com surprised me with a cancer awareness ribbon rock. They gave it to me because I am a 3 time cancer survivor. 1 is considered terminal. But anyway that gesture told me what a top notch business they are. But anyway these pictures show the progress over the last few weeks.
