The Bookstore

Its always been a dream of mine to own a bookstore cafe, and I do wonder if Diane will ever put the Wind & Tide up for sale.

Hey, tell us your hours/days off, because Chyara and I want to try to visit you before she moves away. Sorry we couldn't make it last weekend, I just ended up with too many obligations. :(

I'm off *most* Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. I say most, because I cover shifts for folks who need time off.

Why wait until/if she puts it up for sale? If you want it, make her an offer!

I thought I'd work there a year and get a lay for the business, etc. before making any formal declaration.

But yeah, I'd need to get some business loans, etc. settled first so I knew how much I could offer her.

Would the folks be willing to bankroll you?

Dunno, may be an option. I'd need to have full business plans, financial documents, marketing strategies, etc. before I went to them.

I'm sure your father would grill you thoroughly about it. :)

Is there likely to be a chance of Josh being stationed somewhere else?

Likelihood is fairly minimal, his background is firmly in P3 and Prowler electronics (which are rather carrier-based), as well as non-collateral weaponry - which typically means he's right here at NAS Whidbey.

However, now that he's becoming an Air Speed/Six Sigma expert - it opens him up to more traveling, but not necessarily re-stationing.

Next year is formally the end of his shore-duty, which could mean a deployment to a boat. Without more boat duty, he's most likely not going to make Chief - which is our goal. So I want the boat duty for him, for his goals, but it will mean 6 mos or so without him.

Fortunately, our HPs & HP are pretty cooperative about sticking with us despite our military ties. Not too many covens would take a couple in our situation.

It's been ages since I've been in there...

Do drop by next time you're in town, I'm fairly obviously me.
