Greetings folks!
I’ve been having a busy but fun summer/fall. Learned a new fun skill. But now it’s getting to be brewing season for me. Soon I will be spending a day getting all my gear cleaned and ready. Looking forward to chilly evenings in the brewery listening to pod casts.
You have become a fish hugger? ? ?

Good to hear from you again Jim.
I look forward to your brewing–and other–adventures.

Hi Jim! Any chance you’ll make it to the conference in Portland in June?
Was the new skill fishing or river running? That is a nice salmon (don’t know which type). Great to see you back!
I haven’t done a big river trip since 2000. Now I am trying to talk the wife into another.
Hey, HBC will be in Portland! Almost seems like I would have to go. I should have my turn at vacation bidding pretty soon.

Yes, I bought a drift boat and learned the Klickitat. I absolutely love it. Wished I’d done this year’s ago.
The fish is a salmonid… Actually a steelhead.

Last year it was $275 for the full conference and $225 for the social package (basically the conference minus the educational sessions).
Introducing Homebrew Headquarters at the Great American Beer Festival happening Oct. 10-12, in Denver, Colo.
Est. reading time: 12 minutes
It’s a blast.
What if an AHA member just wanted to show up for club night?

I don’t recall if you can just buy club night or if you have to do the whole social package.

I remember pulling big Steelies out of extremely shallow creeks that ran to Lake Erie when I lived in Cleveland. Great time time and great eating!

Good to hear from you Jim.
I bought my salmon stamp for the second year in a row an just can’t get out to the lake.
Maybe a good thing as the fishermen in the lagoon found a couple duffle bags full of someone last week. Glad that wasn’t me. In the bag or finding it.
Hey Jim! Glad to hear all is well.

I’m soooo glad I don’t live there, lol
