Played first round of the year on a very soggy muni near Dayton, OH called Yankee Trace. 47 degrees and drizzling for part of the round. 43 on the front from the blues. Came undone on the back with a 55. Most bunkers were underwater. Surprised the even let us on. Normally shoot mid 90’s mostly...

The jerk who rides your ass in the left lane in heavy traffic as you’re passing cars in the right lane and a dozen cars in front of you are all on each others asses. You’re not getting anywhere even if I hit my brakes just to move over. And the person who meanders in the left lane but then...

Someone needs to tell them that robots don’t eat tacos.

My FIL has been dropping hens off by the shopping bag full. Roasted a bunch the other night with butternut squash from the garden, onion, and garlic seasoned with thyme, salt and pepper. Following night made sautéed hen with tortellinis and pesto. (Trying to post photo but says I don’t have...

Just outside of philly

Lost most of my cascades due to a solid week of rain just as they were ready. Only harvested a few ounces as most were brown beyond usefulness. Will have to make a hop tea to test what I did get.

Gotta stop by Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel. Good beer, cool place. Short walk from the harbor and opera. Wife and I stayed a few nights there about 10 years ago.

Decent day on a small lake in the Poconos. Caught a few perch, smaller pickerel and a decent smallie also.

Played two rounds in Myrtle Beach this week with my dad and brothers. First at the Grand Dunes private course and second at Heathlands (part of legends). Hit everything poorly at dunes. Hit driver well at Heathlands but could hit greens and chipped and putted horribly. Had fun nonetheless.

Played the scramble with my dad and brothers. We all played poorly and shot a 63. Winning group shot a 55. Had fun though. Only get to see them 2-3 times a year. The following morning, played a round with my older brother and shot a 93 (95% legit. eg dropping instead of rehitting in some...

Good day in the creek.

I play because my dad and brothers love it. Too pricey here in the philly area and I’m a cheap bastard. Usually play only a round or two before our family Myrtle Beach trip where we play some nice courses for cheap. (Dad is a golf week rater. Low handicapper). Fortunate to travel back to Ohio to...

If you want beer that tastes green, isn’t it obvious to use greenboard? Cheap, readily available, plus the added benefit of being closer to true beer or even a manly man’s beer.

Raising a glass. RIP Geoff.

I would of been proud to call him a friend. Poor Abbey lost out to a baby garter snake, a baby bluebird, and was bitten on the tongue twice by groundhogs (don’t ask). Def was missing certain pit genes.

Update: Had to say goodbye a week ago today. She let us know she was ready. House just isn’t the same. Feels awful empty at times. Lots of good memories though and no regrets. Buried her in the yard. Stepped in a pile while putting the tools away, then sore as hell for a few days. She’s...

Swmbo says ‘Cloudy with a chance of meatballs’

Brewsncrabs sorry for your loss. Inkleg, thanks for the kind words. I’ll join ya in raising a glass to all of our four-legged friends lost, living and yet to be made. They’re not people but hold a special place in our hearts all the same.

Here is a pic of Abbey with my firstborn back in 2013. Just found out today she has stomach cancer. Been a good 14 years. Tell myself she’s a dog and I know they don’t last forever, but when you care for and bond with a being that long, it is a tough pill to swallow.

Damn. The only thing worse than the Pats winning the superbowl is the Eagles winning. It’s a lose-lose situation.
