Wow, first in.  Should I take a seat by the window?  Or by the counter?  Hello Pops‌, I could use a cup of coffee.

  • Wow!  Good morning....what a time I had getting this place open this morning.  c2q should be pretty proud of me today.  It sorta (I said sorta) looks like I might have gotten it.  I'm sure something isn't right, but at least I can find the place now.

    So let me start this morning off by informing my friends here about my schedule today....I have a very dear friend of mine that is moving today, and she and her brother have asked for my help starting @ noon today in a town about 20 minutes away.  The pair of them both seem to think that we will be involved for about 3 - 3.5 hours max.  If my experience in life has taught me one thing, it is if it is scheduled for 3.5 hours, it is most likely going to take 6 hours....

    So, that my friends means that from approximately 11:30 this morning, until probably 4:30 this evening....I will be trusting this mottley crowd to not trash the place too badly and to help yourselves to the open bar, and try to not have any brawls or catfights while I'm out rescuing a "damsel" in distress...

    With that being said, let's get some food and coffee going here this morning...

    Good morning, Pops!  It's awesome that you're helping a friend move today!  I'm sure that everyone will be om thier best behavior while the cafe is unmanned. I'd help out, but we took delivery of our gorgeous new bike yesterday,  and the weather is nice.....you KNOW what that means, right?

     

    I loved the jokes!!!

     

    I'm drinking whatever you're pouring, as long as it's caffeinated!

                        Now I don't want to be a "kill joy"...but you guys need to be extremely careful for the first few rides.  I used to teach "defensive driving," and it is a proven fact that 85% of all accidents on motorcycles happen in the first 1,000 miles of ownership.  He needs to get used to the "newness" and the different level of power....I'm just saying.....and don't forget to have fun!!!!!!

                        I opened mine up to 130 mph the day after I got it out...so I understand if he tells me to mind my own business....

                        oops, I didn't see the profanity on his tee shirt, sorry....so I deleted it.....

                            Pops, I love that you are so safety oriented......too many riders aren't!  We live and breathe safety in this house; the hubs is a regional safety manager for a trucking company and he's been riding his whole life.  You guys should swap stories!

                  Pops8 those donuts look just the thing this morning to get me going. It feels like a lazy day. How about some white coffee this AM?

                  The jokes are a riot . . . no bricks, please.

                  Hi susan_m! I'm jealous of you guys out there on the road today. It's a perfect day here for it. Is it too far for you to stop by and show off that new bike? Gorgeous.

                      Good morning everyone!  The coffee looks great the morning!  Enjoyed the jokes Pops - hope you don't have to work too hard this afternoon - moving is a big job - hopefully she is prepared - that makes a big difference.

                      Don't be worrying Pops‌, it took me months to figure out all the steps to post the train.  When I think I finally GOT it, CRAP!  something isn't right.

                      I LOL at some of those jokes this morning.  I LOVE laughter with my morning coffee!  Thanks.

                      Sad you won't get in a ride today - looks like it's gonna' be a good one!  130 mph?

                      I think I'll take a cuppa' with milk this morning   I see  a chocolate frosted  donut back there.  Would love to have that!

                      I promise not to trash the place while you are gone (that toilet paper in my purse is in case the bathroom needs to be replenished!!!)

                      🙂

                      It's a beautiful day, Pops‌. Hope you get a chance to enjoy it. I don't envy you all that moving, but what a sense of accomplishment when you're done. Glad to see everythings back in place here.
