Today I had to get some groceries, and since I didn't eat dinner the night before, I decided to swing by Picasso Bros. for a drink and a sandwich. Never go grocery shopping when you're hungry! It was a day of 'Seattle Sunshine' so I had a short jacket on, but once inside, I ordered my lunch and beverage. When I got my drink and paid for everything, I picked a spot to sit and wait for my food. I took off my jacket, and placed it on the back of the chair and sat down. Nobody ran away screaming "Gun! Gun!" or, shielded their children, and yes... there were children in the store. I took out my iPod and started an iTunes update that I knew was available, because they have free Wi-Fi too! The gal brought my sandwich over, and went back to whatever she was doing, and I started munching on my Club. The sandwich didn't get cut all the way through, so I had to go back to the counter for it to be re-done, and nobody batted an eye. I finished my sandwich, took my plate over to the counter, and sat at a bar they have and finished my software update. I chatted a bit with the girls, not once did they say a word about my gun, and when my update finished and my iPod rebooted, I ordered another drink and said bye. I drove over to Safeway and I did my grocery shopping, not really concealing, but technically not fully OC either. Then I came home, put away groceries, and put all my toys away after powering them down

So if you happen to see Picasso Brothers at 1001 S. Gold St. Centralia, pop in and grab an espresso, sandwich, or cigar!

I OC in Centralia/Chehalis all the time. La Tarasca, Samsiri, GeeGees.....all great places to eat and appear to either be OC friendly or just very unobservant....

I've never had an issue in Lewis county.
