Wow! Need to wear sunglasses in there! And all that polished NMF glare!!! Wasn't Fuddy Duddy the one Maguires did the wax job on? Bright, clean and a nice website. More pics would be nice....I ALWAYS like more pics!!! Anyone been through there lately and can give a first-hand report?

A couple of us are planning to be out there fairly soon. I'll try to get photos during our visit if I am able.
