Ok, so my 10 year plan was to open a Roastery and 5 or 6 coffeehouses each a couple years apart. Now 2 years 6 months 21 days into the plan. Opened coffeehouse number 2 at my new Roastery location NY Day 4 months 21 days ago right on schedule.

Just got the seller signed purchase contract back for number 3 today, scheduled to close next Friday May 28th. Wasn't looking for it, just fell in my lap May 4th. Which I atribute to constant quality focused hard work and the Man Upstairs stepping in to lend a hand. It's one of those situations and deals you can't pass up. Quality focused established shop that just needs some fine tuning, owners recently had major health challenges hit them and need to get out. Just have to finish hammering out the new lease with the leasing agent and out of state owner, ball currently in their court...

And couldn't be pulling all this off without another God send who arrived from Michigan to join the insanity last Dec 18th around 8pm. That would be Bry of course.

It's a done deal!

HaHa! Absolutely correct. ZERO plans on entering the east coast coffeehouse market in the foreseeable future.

Thought you were going bi-coastal for a minute, Mike. But, "NY" = "New Year's," right? Congratulations!
