Day 30- Quick update

October 1st is here! We are working feverishly to get everything done in time. Of course, as always it looks like it will go down to the wire but we are still hoping to have at least a few days to tweak stuff. I have broken down the remaining task list so you can see what we have left. Yes it is scary. I get that, but it is what it is. I just remind myself to think of those reality shows where they have to rebuild an entire house in just 3 days !(OK fine they have a crew of about 50 people but the analogy is close enough) We just need to stay focused and get one task done at a time:

1.       Elevator camera
