Missing in action?

It's been a long 2 years of "fasting" specialty coffee (SC).  If you weren't aware of what has been going on in our lives, my wife and I moved back to New England following the death of my stepdad.  I knew moving up here would necessarily involve a significant change in lifestyle and priorities, but I did not know how wide-reaching those changes would affect us.  In two years, we have made many friends but have discovered that where we live is a near-vacuum for SC, with a few notable exceptions.
