Relaxing at home

Me and the Scottie enjoying some relaxing time
I got home around 5:30 PM on Saturday and after having temps in the high 90's all week it was quite a shock to my system to roll into Michigan and find it at 60F and drizzling.  So, we built a fire, poured a couple glasses of wine and enjoyed a "bug free" evening of talking and relaxing.  Can you tell I just finished a 3,353 mile trip on a motorcycle and a week in a tent?

It was a great trip full of fond memories of the people and the sights.  I'll be adding more photos in the photo section.

Wallace Pub Crawl

After sampling a Wallace Brewing IPA, we made a few stops and ending up in the City Limits Pub (behind which is the North Idaho Mountain Brew brewery).  Turns out that the guy who checked on our first pitcher order was the brewmaster.  After asking a few questions I asked if the brewery was adjacent to the pub and he asked if we would like a tour of the brewery (yes!).  So Mark Burmeister, the brewmaster gave us a great and very personal tour (that's him, in the middle above).  Are the beers good?  YEP!

(by the way, the Fish Tacos were outstanding...)

Bummer!

Next to leaving the folks at camp, there was another confirmation the trip had come to an end. Cutting off the arm band....

And then there is the mirror showing all the tan lines...

Almost there...

About 25 miles east of Moses Lake. Onto George for fuel then home.
