the old Man and the Sea

George Crosby, a Key West classic painter and a hugh fan of our Costa Rica reserve house brew, offered to paint Theo as a ships captain.


With all the ship stuff we have been doing here at the Coffee Plantation we thought it would be the right thing to do...






Look at this talent...
This guy George is phenomenal....

The price of a John Deer





















After four years of living the Key West life our dear friend, and basically part of our Coffee Plantation furniture, Country Lee is moving back to South Carolina for a serious career.

He is moving today and after loading up his car with all his toys and other collectibles he gathered here at our Tropical Island, he found that there was no room on his Eco Suv for his John Deer bicycle.

His bicycle was his favorite way of cruising the Island and he found the Coffee Plantation to be a good new home for his Key West transportation device.

Both Lee and Theo decided that a trade would be wise and appropriate, and our negotiations had the following result...

The price of a John Deer...
Eighteen Large Costa Rica Reserve House Brew Coffee, Seven Double shots of our fine Espresso,
Ten Bagels with Cream Cheese( mostly chive),
Three Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice, Three Soups du jour, One home made Ham and Cheese Croissants, Two 1 liter Evians, One Banana Smoothie, and a Key West Bagel...toasted...

Having had Lee as our friend and loyal Coffee Plantation customer....
priceless...
