Exhausted, But Good

We are all tired.  And by we I mean everyone.  Josh, Chuck, Troy, and all of our new staff, my family and me.  It has been a crazy long week!  We woke up this morning to a serious flood as the Cobra sprung a leak over night.  We mopped up thousands of litres of water this morning, and then we opened our doors.  And as we have dreamt for years now, people came.  Hundreds of folk walked through our doors today, to celebrate with us, to drink great coffee and to see one of the city's new great cafes.  Props to everyone who has worked so hard to make Transcend Garneau a reality.  Props to all of our investors as well, and all of the faithful customers who are making all of this possible.  So, to bed now to get some sleep.  Tomorrow, I will finally post my review of Scott Rao's new book, on my spanky new MacBook, as my slightly older one died a very drunk death, soaked in red wine.  Thanks to John Lucas of the Edmonton Journal for the audio slideshow.
