    It was GREAT to see you two and you both looked stunning!! Sorry I was too busy to chat and spend more time with you. The Gold Line opening made us busier than we had anticipated even with us prepping and anticipating for the busiest day ever. Hoping the Gold Line will be a Gold Mine for Purgatory Pizza, (not just an opening day thing,) and I can then pay someone to work and get more time to enjoy friends like you. ;)
