A Great Week for a Brew Review...

Alright Crew - I just looked at the forecast for the week and Thursday looks like a pretty amazing day to sample some beer :).  Hoping you can make it and try some (if you're a real go-getter and HAVE A RIDE HOME - possibly all) of the 100+ beers that will be at the event.

2015 Golf Outing...

A Race that Gets Me...

Picture
The Fools Five Gets Me...  It gets me every year.  When they ask for anyone who has battled or is currently battling cancer to remain standing and the everyone else to take a knee...  It kills me.  I wish there were a few people standing beside me at that time.

I also have to embrace the spirit that is at this event.  It's one I won't miss and one all of you should make an effort to try.  This year I had some of my favorites with.  I definitely found myself a little out of shape and at one point I said, "I think I'm dying."  My (widow) friend Wade said to me, " Nope = you're living.  You can feel the pain and you're out here running."

I hate smart people with perspective when you can barely breath :).  But man is he right!

This last note should fall into the ...A Note from Rach section - but I want to include it here :).  Since venturing off a little from Winona, I realized this winter / beginning of spring, how much I miss my running partner, Sami, and other Winona folk that enjoy being out.

I needed help motivating myself and getting back out there (whether it be running - biking - walking ...)  I gathered some friends and we all text one another when we workout / do something active.  This may seem ridiculous...  but seriously it is motivating for me.  When a text comes through saying, "I just did 3 miles..."  It motivates me to plan a time to get a run in.

Just some food for thought...

...And a Note from Rach.

Well - what would a Sunday be without a little Funday :)...

So - one of my good friends (an adopted sibling), who goes on Boundary Waters Adventures with our group, had the brilliant idea to work on our cocktail mixtures in the off season.  Today we tested out dehydrated Bloody Marys...

We have a little bit of work ahead of us.  The first sampling went well, but we feel we do not have our process down.  We will continue to perfect our methods.

It's pretty amazing what one can dehydrate...

And my last note - make sure to love the ones that are important to you everyday.  Maybe a note - a text - an email - a call...  Or a snuggle in the morning.

Cheers and Hoping to See Many of You on Thursday!
