    • Nov 9thBetty and Joe’s Trout’s Hill Coffee grand opening, Lexington, and The Homestead

      Last year, my Mom and Dad crowdfunded a coffee shop in my Dad’s hometown.  I’m really proud of their accomplishments and how they give back.  The coffee shop provides jobs, but it also gives the town a gathering place that has been absent for some time.  I think is was a great idea, and I’m glad we could be a part of it.
