It's quite humorous to look back at this post I wrote a year ago in July of 2017. Writing about things as they occur not only allows people be a part of the experience but also provides an honest recap to look back on down the road. Well, I can't hold back from writing about it anymore…

Multiple people commented that our model sounded similar to Purple Door, which was awesome!
