Roanoke, a friend indeed

Let me start by saying "Douglass, you are awesome!."  I met Douglass at the Festival in the Park in Roanoke this past weekend. He was walking by drinking a root beer ( I am a big fan of all things root beer), I asked him where he got it from and if it was close. I was hoping to make a root beer run. He explained that it was kind of far away from where I was located. He said he would bring one to me if I was still there by 5pm. I didn't think about it as I was busy selling sunglasses to the kind people of Roanoke.  Sure enough he comes back with not only one but two root beers!!!! One was an extremely delicious caramel cream root beer by Brownie's. I offered and tried to give him some money for the root beers and his trouble but he would not have any of it. I will pay it forward as soon as can.   What a great gesture and totally unexpected. Thank you again, Douglass ,for making my 3 day 12 hour days much better. 

I also saw a gentleman dressed up as Elvis.


This weekend SunFlipz will be in Hampton for the Blackbeard Pirate Festival. Yes, you heard that right. PIRATES!!!! I have a feeling it will be totally awesome.
