which starbucks? There are only four or five in this area of 30A. Also, do you enjoy knitting in the warmer weather? I don't. The cold weather is the last thing I want to think about, but I do have a couple of bikini patterns for crocheting. Now that might keep up my interest in the warm weather.

If you're into knitting, check out [URL]http://www.threadbearfiberarts.com/[/URL] . It's a business co-owned by one of my all-time favorite students. He is a computer and mathematical genius -- we loved discussing intellectual topics with each other. We'd pick some new technology that we both wanted to learn, and I'd supervise him and a few other students in an the independent study course. Now he's gone from computer science to knitting. 
 
I need to email him. Haven't talked to him in a while.

Very nice website...thanks for the link : )

You're welcome. I heard back from Matt. The company that he and his life partner Rob have is one of the largest fiber arts retailers in the US, and they plan to triple in size soon. It was great hearing from him! There are certain students that I really miss -- he is definitely at the top of the list.
