They don't pay me but I do like to see people I know succeed. So, sure, you're right that I'm an unapologetic shill for local businesses. Octopus is a great coffee shop and cafe, too.
<===== Notice the location
It makes none to me if no one else is an early riser. We've had groups meet before recovery or leadership classes in other years but I don't know that most on this trip may know that.
Now hang-overs, yeah, in other years Sunday morning don't shine too bright sometimes. Just gimme coffee and dark sunglasses.
Hey, BTW, it snowed this morning about an inch and supposed to be chilly all week. So folks may consider how you deal with trails with some slick clay mud and ice still.
