Mad Elf

 


Mad Elf
Be Warned: 11% Alcohol
This Beer Is Dangerous

I once went in to a local corner room tap room and found this beer on tap.  It was happy hour so all pints were just $2.  I downed the first pint and ordered a second one before the end of happy hour.  The second one was a little more difficult to consume but I didn't leave a drop.

When I went to get off the bar stool, I was a little light-headed.  I had a buzz.  And after I took a few steps, I realized I was loaded.  I knew I couldn't drive.  But I left my car at work and I had to get home. 

My friend drove me home and I left my car at work.  Someone had to pick me up in the morning, although I should have called in sick as I spent the evening throwing up from too much alcohol.

So now, this beer is off my consumption list.  No more for me thanks.

Citrus Limbo IPA

 Citrus Limbo  IPA

Long Trail Brewing Company
Vermont

I stumbled upon this brewery about 15 years ago as I was wandering around Vermont.  At the time, craft beers were still trying to squeeze in to the beer world. But I don't think this brewery ever had any trouble finding a seat at the table.  They have consistently made high quality beers.

So, yesterday, I stumbled in to a local beer distributor in PA and a Long Trail Beer Boy was there, handing out a few samples.  I had several sample and I left with way too much beer.

This IPA is full of hops, has a slight hint of citrus and not too heavy. This will be a great beer to drink by the pool.

Hanging With The Elk

Hanging With The Elk
Colorado
October 2021

At first, we saw a single female on the side of the road.  Then we noticed two bucks across the street.  And when we strained out eyes to look further, we saw a herd of 30 of them on the local golf course.  We watched them for awhile and then we went somewhere to grab a beer. 

On the way out of town, we saw that the herd had moved towards a public park, down by the river so we decided to go and watch them again.  At this point, there were 60 or more of them.  At one point the Alpha male let out a cry and one by one, they followed him across the river. I was mesmerized by them.

Today, I Paid Attention To Shadows

Today I Paid Attention To Shadows
Dewey Beach, DE
November 2021

OMG, it was 65F today and it was mid-November.  So I just had to take a quick trip to the beach.  And while it was sunny, it was just a little too windy for me to pull out my beach chair and sit.  Too much sand was blowing in my face and getting on my nerves.  So, instead, I photographed shadows.  I don't notice the shadows in the summer because there are too many people and birds to distract me.  But today, I was all by myself.

Searching For Santa


Searching for Santa
Philadelphia, PA
AKA The North Pole
December 2021


Elliot and I went searching for Santa and I loved this moment.  We went to a neighborhood in South Philly that goes overboard with the decorations. Elliot was certain that we were in the North Pole and that we would run in to Santa tonight and he would reinforce what he wanted for Christmas.  I just love the magical moments of Christmas.

Mad Elf

 Mad Elf

A Christmas Ale

Troegs Brewery


Be very careful with this crazy elf.  The high content of alcohol makes this a dangerous beer. I can't believe some of the things that come out of my mouth after consuming just a few of these beers.

When drinking this beer with relatives you don't like, avoid the topics of politics, religion, sports, shopping, family, friends, dogs, cats, nature, traffic, holidays, baking, television, prison reform, traveling, reading, singing, water boarding, trash pick up, gardening, solar energy, sail boats, in-laws, bus schedules, shoes, the value of a coach purse, mink hats, the rain forest, The Red Sox, China, the Boy Scouts, Tom's shoes, Route 66, Save the Whale, Wall Street, New Years Eve plans, Chinese food, chocolate ice cream, foot odor, who makes the best holiday pies or any topic really.  When you have a few mad elves in you, your thought process goes mad.

Hawaii

Hawaii
To Be Visited
My Last State to Visit

If it weren't for the cover 19 virus, I would probably have visited this state by this year.  It was on my spring travel itinerary.  But that didn't happen and there is no end in sight to the quarantine.  And once the quarantine is lifted, will I be comfortable in traveling again and will flights be available because the demand will be so damn high.

I am torn as to how long I want this trip to be and how extensive.  Typically, when I visit a state, I go for three to five days. I fly to the capital city, rent a car, drive around the sate with very little thoughts or plans in mind and just see what I discover. But Hawaii is comprised of four islands and I don't want to spend all of my time at the airports. So which island should I pick.  And when I ask people for recommendations, everyone tells me that I really have to go to all four islands.  They can't just give me an idea of which one is best.  That gets on my nerves.
