Are you kidding me? How is it mid-july already? This summer is absolutely flying by. I think most of us can attest to how busy you become post-college. It's ridiculous.

My oldest brother was in town this past weekend, for a fishing trip with some old friends. Since the only day I'd really see him was on Thursday when he flew in, I decided to take a half-day off, pick him up from the airport, go to the Summit Brewery tour, and then meet J back at my parent's place and have dinner there all of us together. That was J's first time meeting the parents. It went really well....of course, being liberal with the consumption of wine and beer always makes everything easier!

Here are some highlights from the brewery tour. For all of you who were up in arms about me going, I'd totally do it again. There were guys there who said it was their 10th time doing it.

My bro got me a bottle opener I was eye-ing. Notice how its convenient placement.
