Coffee shop day

Rather than spend a third consecutive day of sub 50 (10c) temperature on the deck, I am at a Springfield coffee shop -- Travelers. To be fair, the real reason for my coffee shop trip this morning is that I don't have enough coffee at home for my normal daily allotment and this way combines my coffee shopping and coffee drinking into a single trip. Plus I have my annual eye exam this morning and wasn't going to be out working early anyway. 
This particular shop seems to be more older people than most places. I am surprised by that. Coffee shops have seemed to be the morning domain of Millennials, not Boomers. This one is full and is about a 50/50 split with a few Gen Xers mixed in.

Today is my first flannel shirt day of the SWMO fall. I did wear flannel on our recent trip to Wisconsin, but this is a first for home this year. It almost makes me sad. At least it will warm up enough that a short sleeved shirt will work for working outside this afternoon.

FYI, I don't plan on bringing flannel shirts to Mexico next week!
Shorts, t-shirts, sandals, flip flops, cigars, and a loaded Kindle.
I am ready!
