building, and then turn right, it is the last door on the right to enter the
building (It is building G). We are the first storage unit on the left (113)
once you go into the building. To get in the unit, the lockÕs code is 6023,
then you press on the top of the lock for it to open. You may leave your
supplies in there as neatly as possible. Connie is purchasing shelves for us to
