Great weather – great weekend & a busy week ahead starting today with the sold out class at ABC’s! Once again great people… who traveled from far and near. The weatherman tells us one more warm day in PDX. – It is truly like springtime here with temp’s in the 60′s.
Matt spent his Saturday in Astoria on the coast to open our former student Denise’s new coffee bar named “Street 14 Coffee”
– I love this shot Matty sent from his iphone. Opening day was packed. Everyone loved the bar and big cudos on the WAC coffee too.
Mike from Espresso Supply was in town from Indi to install our new “Della Corte Evolution” machine @ the school. Given he is a major music freak we took him to the Dharma Bums reunion show that was truly amazing.
We had such a great time. Jeremy was “like always – overly amazing” – such positive energy for the sold out show at the Crystal Ballroom. 
Tonight and tomorrow night will find me finishing up a full length feature article for Fresh Cup Magazine for the upcoming SCAA edition.
Then Friday it is N.Y.C.! I heart NY and plan to check out a few plays along with some of NY’s cool in the coffee scene thanks to a post and blog…http://twitchy.org/?p=442 that will be a significant aid in the search for the newest of the new wave.
The Whitney Biennial VIP opening is tomorrow night – but the show opens to the public and non-VIP’s like myself this weekend.
This is a very big deal in the art world so I am hoping the crowds will not be too massive week one. If so I will catch it this summer.
The MOMA hosts a Tim Burton show and after seeing his hour long interview about his art on Charlie Rose – this is a definite must see also.
After all the fun it is time to truly go to work in N.J. for the East Coast 2010 Coffee Fest Show. It will be great like always to see all of my extended coffee family after a long winter break from shows. More later from NY or NJ.
