Julie... fishing in Manaus, wow. I only realized, a few years ago, how many organized fishing trips-tours-vacations there were to the Northeast. Our family fazenda (cattle) is in Goias, and I've fished both lake and river. If I can make it happen, I'll be back visiting family in August or September. The decision for me is how much time I want visiting coffee fazendas versus spending time "on the water fishing." Essentially, they're in opposite directions. This is not an easy choice!

Thanks for the hello, Julie! Washington is great! I'll be back in Reno for a few weeks starting the 11th. See you sometime soon, I'm sure.

Julie,
Thank you for adding me as a friend. It is a special honor to get to know other shop owners and hear there story. We all have much more in common than most think. Nice to see a class of business like yours get set up in Reno. Another great reason to take some time off.
Have a great coffee day,
Joseph

Julie, welcome to the biz. We just opened our roastery/coffee shop 9/21. www.jolindas.com
I look forward to seeing you for coffee when in Reno.
Cheers

Julie you should get your shop on here. Anytime, if ever, these bX-ers come through Reno, they may check here for places to stop. Just a thought.

Hey Julie, hope you and the seahorse are well. Will you be going to Seattle?

Hi Joey,
I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to meet you when you stopped by the store. I will definitely come by Walden's soon. Fairly Grounded should be open by September 1 (construction is finally finished but I have to leave town for a couple of weeks). I look forward talking coffee!
Julie

Hi julie! My name's Joey and I work at Walden's Coffeehouse. Just wanted to introduce myself and say that I'm looking forward to Fairly Grounded! I truly admire the idea behind it all and it's exciting to know you have the ABC training to back it all up. I'd love for you to stop by Walden's some time.

How are things in Reno? We were recently in Florida and thought of you often - sea horses!

Good luck with your add on! I am always looking for ways to expand my business (and bottom line) Coffee is always a welcoming addition.

Hey
Call Matt or I and we will hook you up - all back in the office next Monday 800 655 3955

Good to hear from you - B

Hi Holly,
I know what you mean. I have a cute new krups espresso machine and I tried grinding my beans right and couldn't because of a lame grinder so I ordered a home burr grinder and I guess I'll just have to experiment with it. I haven't had a good cup of coffee since our last day at school!

Things are well here. Have subscribed to a truckload of periodicals and having caffeine withdrawls due to a very lame home machine! Hey, the meerkat is much more your style...a bit mischievious!
