Went to Vancouver BC on Monday for the Canadian Coffee Expo and Canadian Barista Championships. Had a great time watching the competition and seeing all the Canadian coffee people. Went to John Sanders new roasting facility after the show. Overall had a great time but, then I usually do.
I always have alot that I want to blog but, when I sit down my mind goes blank.

Enjoying a summer day on Vancouver Isl.

It has been a fun summer for me. I have barely paid attention to the coffee world at large. I have mostly been trying to get our coffee roasting plant up and running. It is now functinal. We just have one more inspection and we will be good to go. Our roasting company is called Borogove Coffee and is a seperate company from Hotwire. Other then drinking coffee I have gone camping twice and built a big swing set for my kids. Hopefully this next year the two companies that I am apart of make money so I can start travelling again. I am hoping to start blogging more so, that Jeremy will quit bugging me.
