Just wanted to say thanks again for all the hard work and dedication on our Lost Hills lab project! Now that we’ve been in there and able to set up our equipment, it’s been a pretty seamless transition. I thought we’d have some growing pains, but everything was well designed and accessible, it’s been real easy to pass the baton and start running.

Thanks for everything you did – if there’s ever an opportunity to support you all we would be happy to do it. You guys rock!
