Jacob Grier

As D.C. gets icy and cold once again, I’m taking the week off for my first real road trip since September. My first and longest stop will be in Nashville to visit Chad and other friends not cool enough to have blogs I can link to. The frequency of updates will be inversely proportional to the amount of Aerobie-friendly weather and the number of friends I can coerce into playing outside; I’m sure I’ll be at J-J’s enough to update at least a few times.

While in town I hope to get a look at the roasting side of the coffee business and plan on meeting with a craftsman who builds well regarded performance tables for magicians. I may even get a chance to finally try Krooner’s, the sushi bar/motorcycle supply shop in Lebanon.

On Friday I’ll leave Nashville for the Research Triangle to visit my friends Jeff (who has a blog), Ben (who should), and some of the Grier family. I’ll also be attending an IHS day seminar at Duke University. I’ll return Sunday evening to a hopefully warmer and drier D.C.
