Not much has changed
The first photo was taken in January of 2020. One of the last times I was in the Coffee Zone. The second photo was taken about a week ago. My life hasn’t really changed all that much. I have discovered a nice strong filter can takes a few years off. And once it was difficult to find a photo of me without a beer in my hand, these days it tends to be a phone.
Fearless or foolish?
The photo below was taken this morning at the Coffee Zone in Jefferson City, MO. My favorite pre-Covid hangout. Zero masks. Our county has 5,426 confirmed cases. 88+ on Friday. 38 deaths so far and an infection rate of 7%.
Coffee shops post-Covid
“La Colombe, a Philadelphia-based coffee chain, is taking pages out of the airport and pharmacy handbooks in retrofitting 30 of its cafes in six cities for safety. Customers line up outside, where a greeter takes orders at the door “to keep fingers off of touchscreens.” Once inside, patrons, who must wear masks, move through a line. Rather than use the ribbon tape that creates a maze at an airport check-in, La Colombe has installed acrylic panels to frame the lines. Customers must wait six feet apart, and may add food from the grab-and-go case while waiting in line. Inside seating is still prohibited by law.”

Royal Enfield Motorcyle
This is Dan astride his Royal Enfield motorcycle. Dan’s a big guy and the motorcycle is smaller than the big Harleys and BMWs most of the regulars ride. He’s ridden them all and likes the Enfield a lot. More affordable than other brands.
Rob Frommel
Rob Frommel has been bussing tables and washing dishes at the Coffee Zone for the last couple of years and while I knew he was a musician, I had never listened to any of his music. Until today.

Action Movie FX
I made these with an iPhone app (Action Movie FX) about three years ago. They’ve added lots of effects.
