Drinking it in on Higher Ground

Every once in awhile, I have the experience of driving around the corner of where I live, and suddenly seeing something of interest for the very first time, despite that fact that it has been sitting there all along. Such is the case with Higher Ground coffee roasters, which is literally right next to my usual grocery stop. In my quest for decent coffee in the west, I've encountered a number of great places, and this is one of them. Not only is the coffee good, but the menu is compact and meaningful, and the architecture is interesting. What I especially loved was the mason-jars-turned-lighting fixtures perched on the ceiling. Something about that felt really sweet.
