Many hugs and kisses to Troy and his wife for their lovely gift of beer! We opened up a mysterious package last night only to be greeted by a bunch of pigs.

Home again! After about a week and a half away from Atlanta, it’s good to be back. I was looking forward to a cold beer and a couch-full of football to unwind a little. So I went to the fridge – and lo and behold – new beer! My roommate The Goche took it upon […]
