Is that taking a bed in our cabin?

Hook me up with that inflatable yuengling botle and I'll guarantee you that you'll get that bottle opener.

Yeah well this thing is so much more than when we first started talking about it that nothing will surprise me about this event.

The counter says 4 days & 12 hours (and a few minutes) until the Brew Swap.

Heidi & I hit the road at 5am Wednesday morning so if you have any last minute questions or comments now is the time to speak up. Otherwise I'll see you all in a few days!

Whew!
I found my waiver.
I re-formatted my computer over the weekend and thought I had lost it.

This has already been the longest work week ever...

Come on THURSDAY!

I just wanted to say a quick thanks to all the participants and sponsors of the Brew Swap. I thought it was a tremendous success.

I'll be posting more about it and emailing you guys, yet again, tomorrow or Tuesday. Right now I need to unpack, eat and get some sleep. 11.5 hours of driving makes one tired. Made good time though and best of all no speeding tickets.

Yay for the Brew Swap!

To Matt and his fellow organizers, as well as the sponsers: THAT ROCKED! Thanks ever so much: I'm now free to pursue a life more drunken... with variety!




Same time, same place next year? (Or maybe, same time but some place without a piano?)

Awesome time. Got to meet a lot of new people and see some old friends. The beer I brought back will fill my belly for some time to come.

Good food at the pre-swap BBQ too. Thanks to the guy/gal team who brought the monster grill. Very tasty.
