Two old friends and I met for coffee on Wednesday morning and spent pretty much the whole morning catching up (work deadlines? what are those?).
It helped that we chose such a pleasant and convenient spot for our rendezvous: Philter, the coffee shop on West State Street in downtown Kennett.
For a while we were reminiscing about Kennett back in the 1970s, when stores like Resnick's, Sheldon's and Newberry's were still around. And was there a pet store "uptown" at one time?
Philter is quite a bustling place: Claire Murray and Mary Hutchins of Historic Kennett Square were sitting outside; architect Dennis Melton was holding an informal meeting with three or four people; the man at the next table was reviewing the proofs of his book on the Jersey Shore; and other customers were just relaxing and reading the newspaper.
Even Philter's friendly owner, Chris Thompson, stopped by our table to say hi.
