It was well worth the trip \u2013 the owner didn\u2019t realize he had been mentioned in the publication and was just thrilled. He served us a couple of kinds of coffee, while discussing in great length how to make it, checking for our preferences, and giving us a referral of a supplier for a knock-box and replacement milk thermometer for on board coffee making. We sat in his coffee shop on a hill, with a lovely view of the bay we were anchored in, enjoying the breeze and the good coffee and conversation. We left with 5 bags of \u201cPrivate Blend Kinship Coffee\u201d, enough to last us the rest of the trip.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1579\" src=\"http:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-680x453.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131-920x613.jpg 920w, https:\/\/www.eglin.net\/2bikes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC01131.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was a nice treat for all, even for Angela, the non-coffee drinker among us.
