I'd find a way for there to be room at home. That baby is way too sweet to just visit.....you need to see that on a daily basis. I would and do. The colour change when it heats up is gonna blow you away. And MacEggs is correct about refinishing those handles straight off. If there is no protection on them they will get dirty fast when you cook and handle charcoal. Use oil of some sort then a clear coat. If you use spar mix very well with a stick and apply thin with a clean rag would be my ever-so-novice advice.
That cooker looks so good inside on the wood floors.....you should do what I do....keep a Kettle or 6 inside.
