Sunday morning coffee

It’s a lovely Sunday here in Tampa’s Seminole Heights neighborhood, and Anitra and I are enjoying it at our local café, Spaddy’s Coffee. The coffee’s great, our neighbors are here, and the local DJ’s spinning a solid mix.

(It’s also a good place to get work done. There’s often someone here with a laptop; I myself have written some code and a white paper here!)

This lovely moment is also a reminder that if you want your neighborhood to be a great place in which to live, work, and play, patronize your local establishments, especially the small ones! They’re the ones who provide the local flavor, and make the difference between a neighborhood you go to versus a neighborhood you just go through.
