After a long day at work, what could do more to perk one up than to sit at a coffee shop, sip coffee, chat with friends- either well established friends or new ones? Joy is in abundance at The People's Perk coffee shop on South Mendenhall Street. Karen, the ebullient proprietor is always on hand to brighten your day. Works of art adorn the walls, the coffee is great, and there is this fabulous sketch book where customers share their thoughts.
Today's coffee shop philosophy is brought to us by a generous, anonymous (Greensboro?) artist. The stylized fonts read "WITH freedom, books, flowers, and the moon, WHO COULD NOT BE happy? As you enter the weekend, whether totally stressed & worried, totally content, or somewhere in between, ponder freedom, books, flowers, the moon and other things that make you happy. What would you write if you stumbled on this book and a pack of colored pencils? Happy Friday!
Well, Jan, I'm a little different, having had to deal with groups of people my whole life. When I need to relax I avoid places like this because I want to be by myself. But some folks love such places and for them, this would seem ideal.

I would go for music. Have a good weekend- I may be scarce.

I would love this place! Your scenario sounds like heaven to me. Probably because, unlike Jan, I work by myself all day. I love the idea of a community sketchbook. I have one that I draw in each night. Thanks for sharing.
