Its pretty sweet so far, nice and busy :) I have only been living in the area for about a month and a half now but it has been treating me really well.

    Mike, I have no doubt you can go far in this industry. And thanks for asking about Quest Rodding. It is the most glorious sport anyone could imagine. Freedom! Speed! Silence... simotaniously as one man weilds his Quest Rod. Thrusting and Prodding the forest floor, not ever tangling in the wild rose bush. What is Quest Rodding, you ask... I cant say with words. But we do have one in the office at Mud Bay Coffee Co. wanna see?
    Thrillingly,
    Kevan Quest Walker

    Mr. Mike Cannon

    I did pour the heart of a dragon at the latte art comp. the only problem was that nobody had ever seen the heart of a dragon and thus I lost.
