I'm a Bit Sad

I went in to CCF today, a long haul for me, and much to my chagrin, a new team has taken over CCF. I was told that Bryan was gone but "okay" and that the quality will be "staying as high" as before. But that simply cannot be correct. Unless B is their new in-house grower. Just as certain people can take ingredients and make a dish more than the ingredients should be able to add up to, that's what Bryan did with MJ.

This is a bummer. For nearly 10 years I waited to experience again what I had in Arizona back in 2001, and on Christmas day I found it. And now it's gone. Again :(

I don't know, and I'll probably never know why we lost Bryan, and it's none of my business, but I do know that I can no longer honestly say that I live 30 minutes from world class marijuana, simply the best I have ever had.

If you read this Bryan, please know that you made life a grander experience for some of us, and your passion and work will be sorely missed. Never stop doing what you do :thumbsup:

Woah really? That's very strange and unfortunate. Hopefully Bryan checks in here and lets us know what's up. I know there will be a lot of disappointed customers. Hope all is well.

Wow that is really unfortunate if it's true! I enjoyed going in there and was looking forward to getting some feedback from Bryan on my warez... :(

Hopefully he'll still be able to get his work out to the people who enjoy it so much via a different avenue?!?! :confused:

So, is completely new owners/management?!?! Is Debbie still around?:abduct: I also called the other day and some really peppy new guy answered and he didn't seem too familiar with the strains... :tin foil hat:

I sure hope your confused, or misinformed. I drive WAY out of my way to see Bryan's wares. If he's not the man at CCF anymore. I may never go there again.

I've been out there many times, over the last many months, without seeing him too. I always enjoy seeing Debbie as well.

If it's new owners, and different growers, I'm not going back. Instead of a treat, they'll likely just have the same crap everyone has all the time.

OH do I hope your wrong:(

Damm....

I was wondering why Bryan has been so quiet the last few days. No menu updates or comments in a while.

Plus one on all the comments above.

I'll be keeping an eye out for words from Bryan and hoping it's good news.

Bryan had once mentioned to me that some new folks might be in the shop that he was working with. As far as I understood him, it would be more of a partnership than a new ownership. Lets hope I got it right! :thumbsup:

I think once he realized how high demand was, it was hard to keep up the labor on the plants.... growing a lot of high quality medicine is some serious work. Not enough time to be in the shop to!

I'm sure he'll be around soon enough to shed some more light on it for us. :jointsmile:

I hope so. I may have been confused (I hadn't smoked all day, so maybe so) but the way it sounded, Bryan was GONE.

Dude said that they'd be carrying, "the best stuff" and things of that nature, but the bottom line is that they will be buying from vendors that offer their gear every where else, so what's the diff? I'll put in a few extra minutes and take the beautiful drive to Ned. As compared to the NASTY drive down to Colfax, that's no problem, especially here in the warm weather.

This isn't speculation, because I have no idea what the deal at CCF is, but I know we've had a lot of people inquiring about a buyout of our shop. Opening a new dispensary isn't nearly as attractive as taking over a successful operation that already has a patient base. Hopefully this isn't the case, because most everything I've heard about Bryan and CCF has been glowing.

Crazy shit Steve-

I've had a feeling- I e-mailed Bryan last week- got nothing back. Typed on here to contact him and again didn't get anything back so I didn't go to him this past friday. I know I've been really bummed w/o going to CCF and reading all this- I'm bummed even more :( :mad:

I've heard some players are cashing out and heading for Costa Rica, wish it was me;)
