Thanks To All....

Well, it is Thursday & only 1 more day until our staycation!.  Folks here @ the Cafe have been choosing between the 3 paint colors & like I say," majority rules", "unless I don't like their choice".lol.  Ella Mae & I are going to do some day trips & just, 'chill'.  We actually can, if it's hot, because our new apartment complex has an awesome pool.  I think the "Buddy Holly' musical in Cortland is a must do, the Windmill Market in Penn Yan, of course a movie in the afternoon & some dinning @ some local spots.  Then on the weekend before we open back up we will set the Cafe up & maybe put up some new wall pics & then prep for Monday. 
The last week in July will begin our third year!  I need to thank all our customers, friends & family for your support & prayers for our success.  Also all those who have worked for me & with me these past 2 years.  While some will say I am glad to be rid of 'him' I hope all will take a positive outlook in the fact that you helped keep the Cafe going & for that, I thank you.
To Ella Mae, thank you for sticking with me thru these 2 years, even when it was not always what you would have me do.  That is the true testament to love, supporting your spouse & pitching in.
It's been an  interesting journey for sure,  but as long as God keeps me standing upright, I will continue to make this Cafe a success & I will always remember to give HIM the honor, praise & glory!...

 Well it is almost vacation time!  Never thought I would be closing the Cafe for a week of r&r, but the timing is right.  With the loss of my Mom, the re occurrence of my spinal stenosis which brings on a pain that is sometimes unbearable, the fact that Ella Mae is on Spring Break from her duties @ SU & finally I'm pooped!  If you have followed me on this blog than you know I have 'put it out there' that running a small business & most notably a food business, can take a lot out of you.  The fact that I open & close 5 days a week & do all the cooking & dare I say it I am almost 64!  That last reason would be enough for most, but I love what I do even when 'stuff' comes @ me.  Some times these factors are self inflicted but really most are just events that life can bring to any one of us.  So the Cafe will be closed from Monday March 11 & reopen on Monday March 18.  EM & I are driving down to spend time with...

Time To Say Goodbye

   Well it's really the right time to end this journey of mine with this final post.  I just turned 74 & while I'm not throwing in the towel, I am mindful of the time I may have left.  I was shocked to just find out that the average male life expectancy in the U.S. is 73.  I'm certainly hoping to be given enough years to spend as much time as possible with my wife, Ella Mae of 53 years, my amazing Daughter Lindsay, Son-in Law Jeff, Grandchildren CJ, Daniele, Aden & Addison & as of today, our one Great Grandchild Brynlee & her Mom Amber (I surely want more) & the many friends who have made me so happy, especially John Detor.     Thanks to all the above plus Mom & Dad, Pat, Jimmy & all the                     Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Friends     I have been blessed with a wonderful life

We The People

        I've sat back for over these past four years & kept silent as the daily Facebook political posts supporting our now ex-President became even more alarming...Now it's my turn to make my voice known...I can not sit idle any longer...This posting is lengthily & it's my space to write down my thoughts so be fore warned...      Well here it is March 25, 2021 & 563,530 fellow Americans are gone because of the pandemic...We had an inept President & administration for whom facts just didn't matter...The most important duty of a President is to protect us all from foreign & domestic harm & he failed miserably...He has still exhibited no empathy or apology...It still continues to be everyone else's fault..What an inept disgrace of a leader & American... It's amazing to me that he continues to be unfazed & that his cult members still support him...The lies & conspiracy theories continue & we are more divided &...
