Stopped by the Bard, a favorite coffee stop on Middle Street, the other day. Is everything I do connected in some way to writing? A cup of joe and a crossword puzzle were my table mates, seeing that Paul's schedule made a meeting here with me impossible. I enjoy watching the hustle and bustle of early arriving office workers, stopping by for an early morning pick-me-up and making plans for the afternoon and evening. It's 8F above this morning. I'm happier on this side of the window. That's for sure!

Oooh that's just plain cold... hope that's a thermal window!
ReplyDeleteOh brrrrrr....that gave me a chill. I agree, much better inside.
ReplyDeletej'aime bien cette photo, une pause dans la journée
ReplyDeleteI've made some fine friends in St. Paul at a neighborhood cafe...and, it is indeed conducive to writing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot, and the post says a lot about you. My husband goes out for coffee every morning and I am sure he would enjoy sitting at that table with you.
ReplyDeleteNice pic. Looks like a nice venue for people watching and relaxing.
ReplyDeleteNicely shot. Keep inside.
ReplyDeletewhat a great shot! nice!
ReplyDeleteA cup of coffee, a crossword puzzle and people watching..three of my favorite things!
ReplyDeleteNice comforting shot!
ReplyDeleteIt's all the way up to -1˚C here today - toasty!
I love coffee
ReplyDeleteBut not tea
Coffee shops are
Right for me
Crosswords were
My main forte
But now my mind
Has slipped away!
Old age, ya know!
Couldn't live without a good coffee shop in the area. Although they are noisy I seem to get a lot of reading done there. -- barbara
ReplyDeleteI love this post. The glasses on the newspaper, the street scene, and your post about getting the day started and watching the wheels turn outside. Great mood.
ReplyDeleteMy kind of place. I like coffee shops to read the paper, check on blogs, meet friends, people watch and . . . drink coffee. Yours looks like a very pleasant coffee shop, captured well.
ReplyDeleteAren't you glad --as you sit and watch the office workers coming and going---that you don't have to do that now?????? I love my retirement --and wouldn't trade it for anything... We even took a nap this afternoon... ha ha

Yep, my husband goes out for coffee each morning, too, and likes his newspaper . . . and doesn't like anyone yakking at him while he reads it.
ReplyDeleteNicely composed and the glasses are stylin'. Did you finish the crossword? Looks like you were just about to start.
ReplyDeletePeaceful looking shot. Sounds a little chilly.
ReplyDeleteSome relaxing reading at a coffee place is not bad at all, eh? :)
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!
