Met a couple of cool new folks last night at a new homebrew club meeting, several folks who indicated a strong desire to get together and brew (Which we ought to do before it gets too cold). So, let's make it another HBT event, YANKEE INGENUITY V.
Sunday, November 11th. I should have the Barley Crusher by then (good excuse to get my b-day present a couple weeks early). My place, in Adams. Low key. Details to be figgered out later on, I just wanted to get the date out there so if anyone wants to come down, they can start planning now.
I'm highly interested, but for about the 3rd time I have another commitment during YE! I'll get to one of these eventually!

On deck: Trying to decide (beer); wine kit likely (red wine)
My lovely wife will be out of town during that time frame so the probability of me showing up is very low unless I am able to secure child care for the day. In the meantime I will ponder the logistics of making a 5 gallon batch, in the event that the stars are precisely aligned and I am able to show.
There's a chance I could talk the wife into doing some kid-watching. If the weather's nice, there's a nice playground nearby.
Keep me posted. There is a remote possibility that I could bring one, and drop one off at my in-laws in Greenfield for the day.
I have been putting together a recipe for a sorghum beer made with extract, so that might be the easy way out for me if I make it.
Talked to the wife last night, she's more than willing to help keep an eye on the kids that day. If the weather's nice, might even invite some of Cassie's other friends over to play.
Remember, I've got that second burner (I'll just single-infuse something that day) if you need to borrow one.
