Good Morning,

Halloween is this weekend.  And there are lots of Trunk 'N Treat events happening.

Trunk 'N Treat or not, car guys and gals will surely be dressed up at various shows all weekend long.

Because, why not?  It's fun for little kids and adults too.  Plus, in my opinion, car people are pretty darn creative as a whole. 

So, it's not much of a stretch to take that car creativity and apply it to a costume once a year. :0)

Going dressed up or not, be careful as always.

Friendly-ghostly wishes,

GOURMET COFFEE & NEW CARS

Thanks to everyone that made it by last Friday!  And a special thanks to Jon from Riverside and Andy from Arcadia for sticking around until the end to chat!
