Watching my one and five year olds while the wife parties with her friends all weekend (birthday). I'll get her back. [emoji57]
What are you doing instead of brewing this weekend?

Chilling a 13-month bottle of Kriek for its first carbonated (hopefully) taste test. Setting up system and running PBW through everything for giggles before brewing a dry-hopped pilz the following weekend.
We're doing Al's Run, which is a big fundraiser for Milwaukee's Children's Hospital. One of families in our group has a little boy who has a rare genetic condition, and the miracle workers at Children's literally saved his life.
Anyway, the event starts with a big party atmosphere on Marquette University's campus and ends at the big festival park on the lakefront. There are thousands and thousands of participants. Years ago, we figured out that, rather than wait in line to exit the parking lot and wait in another line to get on the highway, we should set up a tailgate party in the parking lot and wait it out with lunch and beer. All in all, it's a pretty darn good way to spend a Saturday.

I have to bottle my blood orange Hefeweizen on Saturday morning before work, and may be going on a motorcycle ride Sunday. Also have to schedule a time to get the bike ion for scheduled service.
Brewed today. Taking my wife to Asheville, NC for 5 days.

Love that town! So many craft beer options there. There was a pizza joint that had a movie theater in it when i was there about 15 yrs ago. Never had been to a theater that served beer and pizza before! We saw "28 Days Later"...
The only craft beer options this time will be during lunch/dinner. This will be all artsy/fartsy stuff for the wife.
Next time.....,
Gotta re-blue all the metal parts in an old gun today. Then reassemble gun this weekend.
Lots of breweries and white labs out there.
We have one .You can order a pizza and they will bring it to your seat .VIP only. For a couple bucks more it's totally worth it.

Since the coho are finally here in big numbers, I'll be out on the water slaying them and drinking a beer or two or three.

Canning the last of the tomatoes. The few left to pick I will just freeze halved for use whole in soups.

Does bottling count as "not brewing"?

Working Hop in The City @ Schlafly Tap Room on Locust St. here in St.Louis,MO. I'll be serving beer all day and drinking beer all day! It's going to be awesome! 44 diffident beers to choose from, I'm gonna get tanked! [emoji482]
Thinking of brewing! I stockpiled 30 gal of different beers I made last winter for consumption this past summer. Been eagerly awaiting fall to start brewing again. Been eyeballing these pumpkin spice kits and even bought a new brew pot from spike. Just the other day my only mode of transportation took a nose drive and I racked up a nice debt that is going to keep me from brewing for possibly several months😢. So here I sit reading all your stories, living vicariously through those brewing, wishing it was me.

Going to the in-laws (I get so bored there), and nephews birthday party. Since I'll be bored I will build my next brews water profiles and BrewBoss programs, and live on HBT.
I had an e-mail conversation with the legendary Ron Robinson. He's selling me the only remaining set of his Crosman model 160 Pellgun scope mounts left anywhere that I can find. He won championships with a Crosman 160 & a Weaver V22 scope like mine. He was so impressed with the couple pics I sent him, that he decided to sell me the last matte aluminum set of mounts left in his personal parts stash! I paypal'd him yesterday. Can't wait for them to get here so I can finish my model 160resto I posted videos on in the forum below. I'm flattered that he liked my gun enough to sell them to me! 
Here's a shot of me eyeballin' the Weaver V22-A scope from the 70's on my 1955-56 variant one model 160;

I will definitely be Moose hunting. Whether or not I do any Moose shooting is another matter all together.
Wish me luck.

I'll be at a high school football game on Friday night because my daughter cheers. Then to Ole Miss to see if University of Memphis can beat them for a second straight year on Saturday. Sunday is the drive back from Oxford, to the first of my son's baseball games, to a trampoline "park" for a birthday party, and back to the fields for the second game of the Sunday little league double header.

Very much the same. High school game tonight and USC Gamecocks vs Texas A&M tomorrow.
I used to really enjoy those back in the 70's. I am lucky enough to be an easy drive to Dayton for the big one, and there were many smaller, local shows.

A&m is a very good team. I think they can give bama a good ass kicking .
Yardwork, one the dew dries up.
