Default I had a Dream

I had a dream last nite that Greg started a chain of cafe's based on Metal detecting and treasure. All the members were shareholders and the place was designed with input from everyone.

If was basically set up like a Hard Rock cafe but instead of guitars and drums, we displayed treasures found from around the world.

There were different sections based on that type of treasure hunting so we had the Beach room, farmhouse and the gold panning room etc, etc...

On opening nite everyone here was at the cafe and it was just an all around great dream.

perhaps it wasnt a dream and someday there might be such a place.. hmm??

This sounds like a great dream. Great friends to talk to, Great treasures to look at and learn the stories of, and great food to enjoy. Maybe this could be the start of something really GREAT.

Default When you dream - You Dream BIG!

It sounds like a great idea. How many drinks can you buy for a 14k wedding band?
I don't suppose you looked outside the window of that cafe? I'd be interested if you could see a nice beach from the window.

Cheers,

BDA

Nice try Shawn, Denver would be a good location once the chain gets developed, but I think the first few should be on the east coast (Philadelphia to start perhaps?) and spread west from there, you know, William Penn, Betsy Ross, liberty bell, first congress of the US. We've had/have mines, indians, Civil War, military encampments, wagon trails, and more.

And last but not least, this is the state Greg resides in!

It sure does Shawn, as long as it's for "Cafe' in PA" has a nice ring to it and rhymes, "Cafe' in CO" just can't compete
