“playing so many bangers you keep Shazam-ing every few minutes, so you do very little work” REAL LIFE. Another smart, stellar piece! You’re such a cafe connoisseur! I loved a local cafe so much that I had my wedding reception there with our own personalized coffee blend for parting gifts. Something to be said for the rare perfect cafe!

I’m traveling next Thursday but I’m going to try and take the Foster meet up in the car! Maybe you’ll be there??

I felt right inside of each description. We have two in our ranching and ski town, high in the northern Rockies. One is vast, the other intimate. One is known for its coffee from all around the globe, the other for its fresh, homemade pastries. The common denominator, perhaps also in some of your experiences, is the air of conversation. The excitement of sharing life, the joys, the less than such, and the anticipation. Dusty Carhartt, trail smelling jeans, conversing with metro visitors in newly store bought hiking boots. Tales of black-diamond escapades mix with animated descriptions of setting rafters in a new log home. And lest we forget the hounds. Loyal, four legged amigos who sit patiently waiting for a bite of this or that. Wherever the coffee is on, there is one similar vibe, and that is life expressing itself.
