I recently discovered a cool new business … Mycafe, a mobile coffee shop with free delivery and no minimum. With one call, Erika Trevizo, a self-proclaimed coffee lover, will deliver your favorite coffee drinks, hot or cold, to your door.
The menu includes cold brew, hot coffee and lattes. Trevizo listens to her customers and occasionally tweaks her menu by adding specialty drinks such as flavored lemonades, more varieties of Red Bulls, fun seasonal lattes and more.
Mycafe also has a Something Sweet Menu featuring dulce chilito, a Mexican spicy condiment. Flavors include Skittle-ade, Starburst-ade,
Sour Patch Watermelon Lemonade and Jolly Misfit. Mycafe even offers sugar-free options.
For every five drinks you buy, you get one free. Hours of delivery are 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and Saturdays upon request.

order the evening before you’d like it delivered. You may order the same day, but it might take longer.

Jeff Heinrichs has started a business called
Yuma Rides and Services. He will gladly take
you to a doctor’s appointment or drop you off at the Mexico border. But Heinrichs does so much more. He personalizes his services according to the customer’s needs. Although he caters mainly to winter visitors and residents, he’s happy to help anyone who needs help.
His services include
“summerizing” and “winterizing” homes, maintaining vacant homes, refilling propane tanks, weed control, pickup and courier services, computer and IT support and other services as requested.
“We offer many professional and personalized services to lighten the load on your routine and seasonal chores,” he explained.
Heinrichs grew up on the north Oregon coast in the small town of Seaside. He’s a veteran of the U.S. Navy with a bachelor’s degree in computer science. He worked for more than 20 years as a quality manager for a semiconductor capital equipment manufacturer.
He loves the outdoors, especially the beach, and enjoys meeting new people. He has traveled all over the world and visited more than 20 countries and five continents. He was living in Ukraine when Russia invaded in February 2022, forcing him to leave Kyiv. He traveled to Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Serbia and Montenegro before eventually landing in Yuma, where he’s a full-time resident. Sounds like he has plenty of fascinating stories to
share!

A couple of readers reported that Ricky’s Other Place, a pub located
at 3950 W. 24th St., at the intersection of Avenue C, has closed.
A customer went to the establishment and discovered some of the signs gone and the building completely dark.
I searched on the internet and social media and found that it has “permanently closed.”
