Low Temps...Thai Food....Sam Adams?


First off- The temp here in Raleigh has finally started to fall. We are now waking up to the 50's vs. 70's. LOVE IT! Today's high was 80 and the air was not sticky at all. It looks like we finally made it through the summer.

The final push on grout happened today. I will try to get some pictures this week after all of the clean up is done. Right now we are just so tired that we can't push any harder.

And on a final note...Sam Adams Beer. Yep good ol sam adams has pulled a fast one.This here Hallertau Imperial Pilsner is AWESOME. How awesome...well it made it into my top 10 beers of all times.

Road Trip to Grandmas

It't that time of year again, the time when our house is a wreck, our laundry piles up, and our gear stays sorta soggy. It's gauley Season. So to prepare for our weekly pilgrimage to WV we made our rounds to the south to see some friends and family. And of course, what trip would be complete without catching a cold? Not this one. That is the reason I am at home blogging at noon on a wed.

Meat fest was fun again. We were not able to complete the Bocce tournament due to a Mime misplacing one of the yellow balls. I know if she had one more margaritta she would have found it. Lots and lots of food and great friends. We are getting way older cause our beverage cooler was just as full at nights end as it was in the begining. It's the time ya share with good folks that you love. I don't even think we touched the shine. Probably all for the better.
