I'm Alive!! But just barely. I had to take a break from building my car because we have just opened our third restaurant. Campbell's Craft Donuts opened on November 30th 2019. It's been a labor of love just like the car. LOTS of LAAATE nights and EAAARLY mornings. But it has been a success and we are doing very well. Looking forward to getting back to the car next week, at least a half day each week going forward. Sorry I have been totally MIA but it is an all consuming thing. First two weeks of opening I didn't even stay at my own home but at a home closer to the restaurant.
If you are ever in, driving through, or live near Jackson, MS please stop by, we would love to see you.

We sell donuts, which are MASSIVE, and street tacos for breakfast and lunch

This forum is just so supportive I didn't want to disappear with no word. Well, I guess I did that but anyway I am back!

I wish you great success! Our daughter and son in law did their own restaurant start up a couple of years ago so through them I know it isn’t easy, but also know that is a rewarding labor of love.

Cheers!
Jeff

Looks like a great shop. I'll have to stop by if I pass through Jackson. In the immortal words of Homer, "mmmmm donutsssss ahhhhhh."
