our story

An excerpt from The Story of Us

Most of my best ideas usually start out as jokes. Wouldn’t it be funny to call it Monkey’s Bar? It’s like a double pun. There is nothing to do with monkeys or monkey bars. The ultra importance of the apostrophe sets it apart: Monkey’s Bar.

The joke stuck with me and the idea that I had a one year old golden retriever that owns a bar.

My dream and my impulse collided…

Monkey’s Bar was alive and we’re just getting started.
