If you want to go someplace new, where you are now doesn't matter.
People who make things happen do so by accepting where they are today but refusing to let it limit them. They realize they have control over their destinies. They own next.
From A Friend
The Way You Feel
One of our campaigns says that "first impressions happen once and last forever." So what goes into making a first impression?
Somebody is going to tell you it's the way you look. Alright, dress for the impression you want to create.
Others are going to tell you it's the way you speak. Okay, speak clearly and truthfully.
A friend says it's a promise kept. Cool. Be where you say you're going to be when you said you were going to be there.
But we're reminded over and over again that there's something else.
Something felt.

Make It Last
The goal of lasting is why we started with serving. The people we've met through community aren't transactions, they are relationships--even if only for a moment. The quality of the interaction can't be summed up in a tip chart. It's seen on the faces of those served as they walkaway.
Get Out There
We decided that when COVID eased we'd go out and play. We prepped our VW Van and Coffee Cart (two stories for another time) for an adventure which included inviting ourselves to a local public park.
Part of What You See
We've spent a lot of time in our new neighborhood. We're not running for mayor or pretending to be offering solutions to any of the problems that face our community, we're just neighbors. We like being part of the scene.
