I got the yellow nohohon several years back for Tom as my "ADD distraction gift" for self employed office workers. Ha ha anyway 2 years ago I bought myself the gloomy bear nohohon and I love it! I just took him out of the box and noticed them in the window today nodding.
I found Lacy after looking for a hoop group that hoops weekly in attempts to save the Orlando trip. It rained the whole week and I wanted some hoops so I ended up spending all day with her showing Tom and I around the city. The "real Orlando," or non-tourist side. She showed the park where she holds CHI (Community Hoop Initiative). By the way, if you're in Orlando, she holds the hoop group every Thursday 6 PM to 8 PM at Blue Jacket Park. If you are in the area, you should go out and hoop!
We got to see Downtown Orlando, her work place, her hang outs, neighborhoods and ate at Bikes, Beans and Bordeaux. It's a bike themed sandwich shop and I had a peanut butter, banana, and honey sandwich. Anyhoo, the day ended up being really cool and I have TWO shiny hoops now and a new friend in Florida. Oh and I found Lacy through Ourlando: Locally Made. Thank you Lacy for showing Tom and I the city! :) Oh and Tom took 98% of the pictures here.
