“Don’t Cry for Me, Johnson County”

Caribou_coffee_logo_2This morning, I drove by one of the coffee shops where I frequently study.  And I find:  "Caribou Coffee is closed."

By my count, that’s 2 coffee shops I’ve frequented that closed down this direction:  The Conveyor & Caribou Coffee.

A coffee-stained tear is tracing it’s way down my face…  🙂

    I’m so sorry, Tim! Personally, I don’t see losing Caribou as a loss, but that’s a matter of taste. When you get a hankering for a real cup of coffee let me know. My treat!

    Youch! I sense a little Coffee snobbery fighting comin’ on!
    I wonder though, if the coffee shops you frequent close…what does that mean?

    It’s called survival of the fittest! Life is definitely a Grind!
