I hope I’m still here. Some of the staff here are trying to run me off the board and I’m trying to keep Randy out of it. 

How far is everyone willing to travel? Columbia has a recently opened taproom (Cushwa) that has a separate room and pizza. If anyone was up for it, maybe we could meet up between Christmas and New Years.

If the Washington-Jefferson snowstorm of January 1772 happened today, it would produce major urban and small stream flooding.

I understand that both Washington and Jefferson were ultra snow weenies!  Why else would Washington cross the Delaware River in the freezing cold on a holiday?!  Also, the British observer at what is now the DCA location gave a very low snow total for that storm, sparking protests bigger than the Boston Tea Party, and played a role in the eventual American Revolution!  I heard that snow weenies were out on barges tossing large snowballs into the Potomac.  Rumor has it that the aforementioned British observer was an ancestor of what we now call the Reaper!  True history, folks!!!

I’d go to Columbia - nice compromise between the northern area folks and the dc beltway folks and the Frederick folks.

Well I’m a Sapwood right now (obviously from my last post). Always a great spot. Cushwa is fantastic as well. Probably more room to spread out at Cush though as I’m thinking out loud. I’m totally up for it. Let’s make this happen!

Taking a nice hike today in the Catoctins with some friends of mine. Going to get my activity up before I stay inside and watch football on a windy and wet Sunday. 
 

Anyone got any outdoor plans today? 

My Saturday hiking club hike was postponed unfortunately so I signed up for one tomorrow AM - hoping the rain is light early and we should be wrapped before the bad stuff gets here. Today looks glorious for a hike - enjoy!

Saturday is always a taproom work day for me. Fun work tho that sure beats my “real” job.

Happy birthday to one of the greatest!! :D

I asked for that dish in a Mexican restaurant once, and the waitress said that's an Italian thing. (Where she worked before). Guy at the next table said it's a French cheese appetizer.  "Quickly with cheese".  Pretty confusing,  so I just had the tacos. Y'know, play it safe.
