As an early Christmas Present, Kim and I treated ourselves to a new papasan chair from Cost Plus. Not surprisingly, the dog was in it by the end of the evening.

Taken during an afternoon coffee break at work. You can see the new tower construction in the background. The lousy quality of the image is due to its original resolution being 320x240. I've tried to compensate in Photoshop, but it will probably still be quite grainy after getting resized to 504 pixels wide.

I've driven by Leon's numerous times over the last 5 years, but never
had a camera with me. I've never eaten there, because frankly the place looks creepy no matter how classic the signage.
The patrons were arriving for breakfast when I was there taking photos, and many of them looked like they had been going to Leon's since the place opened.

“It’s a Coffee Shop!”

“Wait! You’re both right!”
