Our house around 1950View attachment 853032

I m currently rehabbing the shed on the left to make my outdoor kitchen. It's all that's left of a series of barns used for the farm animals. from the 1850s until sometime in the 1960s. Most of the barns were taken out by a drunk truck driver back in the 60s, he crashed through the stone wall and destroyed all but the building that includes the window on the left..

One of the beer Saints

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Built a 2 tap, 4 keg, mobile kegerator out of cherry from a tree that fell on my property 2 years ago. Last minute build, the day before the event we were pouring our beer at because I love to procrastinate... so I built it in a way that I can take it apart and finish it properly, but it did the job. Top portion comes off, inside lined with reflectics insulation and it held ice Friday to Sunday only topping up once in upper 80 to 90 degree weather. And doggo got his first vendor badge, private event so blocked out the top portion of the badge.

That looks like one big Halibut! How much did it weigh and where was it caught? Alaska?

And when are the fish tacos ready?

Pretty sure the pictured monster was not going to be released...

They be lying to us?

The green rope appears to have been punched through the lower jaw. You don't do that if you're going to release the fish as it messes with their respiration - tougher to pump water through gills when it's leaking through a hole in the lower jaw.

The picture is from a "Camp Halibut" fishing venue shown on Facebook. There are similar pictures to be found. They apparently do release fish, but probably not that one...

Cheers!

Thanks, I fish the much smaller flaties, a didn’t give much thought to how this one was tied up. Marine biologist will often secure a fish to get samples and measurements in a similar fashion, well at least rope the tail.

fishing is relaxing
catching is work

I haven't said that before, have I?
I wouldn't want the "YOU REPEATED A POST!" nannies to come after me

today it's cultivating weeds in vineyards, but we have been warned by Morpheus on what the future holds for machines cultivating crops

^^^ While I do thoroughly enjoy an occasional dram or two, I find beer to be more conducive to every day problem solving, or at least problem enduring. This is mostly due to ramifications the next morning.

The again, I'm not yet retired. If I could sleep in all morning, yeah, why the heck not...

 

[day_trippr]

Wellll....as a retired person and home brewer I do not imbibe in spirits any longer in order to allow the maximization of my beers solution power potential.

So far so good!

Cheers!

 

[Dland]

I'm with you on that, reserving my hard working liver for beer.

It's not without some effort as my Spousal Unit enjoys really good bourbon, of which I keep her well supplied as a quid-pro-quo deal

Cheers!

My biggest fear a about retirement was that I would become a serious alcoholic like my brother but the opposite happened. Maybe it was the stress of my job vanishing overnight.

You're a comedic alcoholic?

You're a comedic alcoholic?

I think so, but my wife often doesn't.
I should have said raging alcoholic, he was a true racist hitting his drinking prime in the Obama years. Luckily he drank himself to death a month before trump descended the escalator, he would have been even more insufferable.
