    Hey Miro, it's been a while man. Hows things over on the east side? Did you guys ever track down a new roaster? That was the latest update that I heard.

    Kalamazoo is doing pretty well, we (Dino's Coffee Lounge) should be up and roasting our own (my little gig) within the first of the year or so, so that's been good and exciting news.

    I'll have to get over and see you guys again soon.
