yeah, Izzy, what are you talking about? I just came through Madison a few days ago, it's a bit over a 2 hour drive for me, so I'm interested!

The location is an old grainery. I have no idea what the inside holds. There is talk of repurposing the property so I would like to capture it before they remove all the lovely decay. As I understand it the plans are to hit the city councils tables in the next 2 weeks.

I will take the drive to make sure there are appropriate openings. You know 6ft fences and all that. This is the real deal so I am not going to ask for permission. Rather I will ask for forgiveness if they have an issue with me being there. Easier to get when you give them a biz card. Then you just look like a loony.

As for "Grace" sometimes that is just what is needed.
