However, I needed to do a few things first.
So I walked over to my neighbor, who lived at the bottom of the hill. I was the only one who lived on the top of the hill with a view of the Mountain.
Jim and his wife, Betty, offered coffee and we sat at the kitchen table. Without hesitation, I told them I needed money, and that I was going to park cars and boats in my field.
They looked a little stoned at this suggestion , but they realized I was asking them for money or I was going to do this alternative.
Guess what they decided?
Yeah.
I called my business Two Pines and A Cone. I kept the ads running and the phone never stopped.
I no longer felt quilty or remorse and no responsibility for our business.
Nick and I no longer existed.
As for Nick. I had no idea what he was doing for money, and at this point I had to move forward.
