Inspection #1

We passed.

I feel a bit like a kid who got an unexpected 'A' on a report card. After Aidan was stood up last week, our inspector suggested we leave a plastic tub somewhere on the lot. He'll inspect. Leave the report in the tub. We come by to get the results when we can: Pass or Fail. There is an air of espionage about it all. Agents slipping off to a secluded drop-off point in the woods to receive a secret message. What a thrill.

Of course, the message isn't very secret. We intend to display each report to you all, so that you too can share in our victories and our failures. Oh, and there will be failures. Apparently, it is inevitable. Read on.
