Hey congrats!!!:) I remember you saying you didn't have any Apple Stores near you. Once it's open...you will have to find some reasons to buy more "Apple Gear"!;)

This proves it's not about purchasing the Apple products. You can do that online. It's about the pilgrimage to the Holy Grail store right? :)

We intentionally keep I30 in bad shape to slow down thru traffic, sort of like an extremely long speed bump. ;)

You should add "but expensive" in between pleasant and Saturday.

Congrats though, Apple must be very happy with the way the stores have taken off worldwide.
