And speaking of good things in York, I met one of my friends at what used to be our favorite routine spot, the coffee shop in Martin Library. The last coffee shop that was in there made an exit under less-than-wonderful circumstances. So we may have been a little skeptical, but hey, we both love the library, and coffee almost as much.
Glad we did.
Mike, who is an owner of the shop whipped up a fantastic iced latte that looked just like the one in the picture on the wall. It was one of the best I've ever had.
Conversation with him was entertaining, and just fun. Turns out he had just had a nasty tete-a`tete with an airbag that left his face with some cuts and brushburns, and his recounting was pretty enlightening.
Beyond that, just about everyone that came in had some banter with him seasoning their coffee.
It was such a pleasure to be back in one of the best hangouts in York, conjoined with a whole building full of free reading. Come on, in just doesn't get any better than that!
I finally got a few minutes breather here to check out your blog! WTGG!
What a nice person you are to make note of Mike's friendly attitude and compliment his coffee talents!
Hope he saw this!
See ya.....
Not a big deal, but just for the record (no pun intended)...
The York Emporium used book & curiosity shop on West Market Street always has free coffee and tea set out for visitors. Also free parking.
Just thought I'd mention it.
