If you haven't been there, go. Located on 4th Ave. just down from the Keith Albee, Vicky and Pete opened the doors in 1995. That's almost 30 years ago. Think about how old you were, and you realize how long ago that was!! Pete roasts all the coffee with beans they order from Hawaii! They're open from Mon-Fri 6:30-5:00 *** The watercolor above was part of my first painting series, 30 Paintings in 30 Days of Huntington that I did in 2015. That original painting hangs in the shop, but Vicky recently ordered prints of it. The man in the blue shirt was the custodian at the Keith for decades and very special to Vicky and Pete. He passed away a few months ago, and Vicky gifted his children the prints. *** I'm in the midst of a new painting series: Places We Love The Best Part's Inside. It took 3 trips to get the right photo for my new painting of The Old Village Roaster.
That's Pete talking to his friend and Vicky filling a coffee order. Vicky is the sweetest woman you'll ever meet, and Pete is just precious. *** I added some colors that aren't there, but I'm an artist... *** If you haven't gone, GO!
