Well this post is coming straight off of the local coffee shop's finished wood table (they have wi-fi here). So I thought that I might have a better chance at coming up with an interesting post with a difference in surroundings.

As I sit here pondering life's mysteries, sipping my White Chocolate steamer. I can't help but think that I don't have much to write about mainly because my mind is being quite fully stimulated with the pleasent welcoming atmosphere this shop airs. There is a large television on the wall tuned to a canadian channel airing some sort of cartoon but it is not a program bent toward educating children in the least actually it has rather disturbing images of cloud like looking figures doing some uncomprehendable action to a goal of unknown understanding. For the most part I pay little attention to the television as my attention is tuned mainly to the screen I'm writing in, also the temporature of my drink as to how fast I should be drinking it before it becomes rather unsavory.

Nestled safely in forest between two mountains with a river flowing through all forming a valley is this little town where this coffee shop takes up business. For as small a town as this is it is rare to even find a shop like this; gormet coffee prepared by a certified berrista, it is quite a treat for a country origin guy like me. I've lived in this little town of 900 for 15 years and before that I lived in an even smaller town. So as you can see I have quite a different viewpoint for the avarage guy who would be found on the internet. The thing is though is that a place like this can't actually exist in a town like this, there is just to little business in this town to hold up a one product type shop as this, I mean even the grocery store has a hardware store renting one side of the building and believe it or not there is a full pharmacy just next to the electrical sockets and lighebulbs asle.

Though this is kind of a cramped little town it's not to bad to retire in and is kind of a low speed low energy kind of town it is home to me, and someday I plan on retireing here. That is after I have lived everywhere else.

Signing out.
