Plenty of fire wood.

I have a friend who started his own beer company recently. He's more than a friend, actually I basically watched him grow up. He is the same age as my oldest daughter, and they became friends as tottlers, so when I heard he was trying to get this business of his off the ground, I was really pulling for him.

Are you familiar with the "Most interesting man in the world" Dos Equis beer commercials?

Well, I wanted to promote my friends beer company on Facebook, so I took this picture and posted it with the words,

"I don't often drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Evil Genius."

So, if you come across any Evil Genius beer in your local store and you want to support the small business of a very nice young man, pick up a six pack or two.

I find it interesting that I thought by putting on a scarf and a hat, that would make me "the most interesting man in the world."

Now I know why my wife was rolling her eyes as she took this shot.

Over the years, my wife and I have had the discussion where she claims that all the "stuff" happens when I'm gone. i.e., water pump breaks, a blizzard shows up, the garage door opener breaks, etc. I'm beginning to see her point.

Last month when I came back to work, I got a phone call saying, "the wind storm knocked down one of our big trees in our back yard."

A few days ago, which was my first day back on the boat, I got a phone call saying, "the wind storm knocked down another tree."

I'm beginning to see a pattern here......and I like it.
