Well, as I was actually on my way to a different location to do my video for today. I had an idea back down at the sculpture park that I wanted to do that was a little different than I had done before. And as I pulled into the parking lot, the bottom just fell out of the sky. And so there wasn't going to be any walk in there when I was taking the video. So I did what I typically do. I got out my phone and I opened up Google Maps and I said, what coffee shops are near me? Because, Maybe there's one I haven't been to. And I noticed that the Mad Priest Coffee Shop was here on Broad Street. Now I've been to the Mad Priest and cocktail bar down on Cherry Street a long time ago, but it went out of business. And I didn't even know that this was their original location. And I didn't even know this was here. They told me that COVID did the other one in. But you can see that it is, it's just a little bit irreverent. And I love it. So I bought a, I bought a bag of their rise from the dead that they come with me and have a little coffee at home because I'm going to need to buy some here soon. And so I got this free coffee with it. This is a walk in walk out kind of place. Two stools happened to be nobody at one of them when I sat down to enjoy my coffee. But it's a really nice little hole in the wall place. They are their own coffee roasters. So their coffee is made locally. And it is sold at the fresh market you can buy the Mad Priest Coffee. And I had what has become my favorite coffee now, which is a Cortado. Just a nice espresso shot with a little bit of milk, steamed milk. So it's not quite as bad for me as a cappuccino. I've said that a lot of times. And now that I'm done and the video is made and I'm ready to go home and edit, the rain is gone. And I could have waited, but if I had waited, I would have missed the coffee.
