Sorry about the store, but glad everyone is safe. Don't you have any security camera footage?

Our insurance adjustor came today to take pictures and measurements etc. Assumedly they will hash it out with ICBC. Our security cameras have everything on tape. It wasn't a smash-and-grab thing. The driver lost control of his vehicle for whatever reason, (we were told a heart attack), but I heard on the news today Police are still investigating. Last night the repair service came in and boarded up the gaping hole in the wall, while a clean-up crew got the inside half-way decent. We were open for business by 11:00 am. It looks kind of Mickey Mouse with temporary wooden shelves for the wine display, but at least we didn't have any down time.
