WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)

[SKT]

@Matt if I keep drinking and posting it will be planned by tonight!

[Matt]

I’m right behind you brother. We haven’t been to MO yet so it would be an easy sell.

@SKT I had met Dave Perkins,the founder of High West,at an event in NYC,called Whiskey Fest. Super nice personable guy. Anyway we’re talking about bourbon and rye and he pulls out a mason jar and says here try this, it’s something new I’m working on called Campfire. Not being a fan of scotch I didn’t like it,but bought a bottle to offer to friends who preferred Scotch. He was a biochemist who was doing research on drugs to treat cancer,when he took a tour at Makers Mark,and the rest is the proverbial history. At some point High West was bought out by Constellation Brands, and they parted ways with him. I think he got about $126 million and a noncompete clause. I would also love to have a drink with you!

@Jett129 man that’s an awesome story. I’ve enjoyed a bunch of High West offerings. I like peated Scotch and I like bourbon so the campfire was a natural for me. I just nip at it but it’s especially good around a…campfire. A drink someday would be awesome.

@Matt I beat on Missouri a lot but the fact is my people have been around here since forever. Our farm has been in my family since 1903… not that long compared to our European friends but a long time for here I think. I can’t believe Katie and the girls didn’t beg you to stop in MO during your adventure! Coulda seen Bass Pro Shops

[Matt]

It’s a mystery that it didn’t make the shortlist.

[SKT]

Hmm…Branson or Yellowstone…I mean it’s a tough call

[Matt]

Well, when we head up that way for SKT’s Iron Heart Barn Buster we’ll build in some extra time.

[ARNC]

@SKT seems like a lot's been happening on here while I've been sleeping. Looks like a great place to escape the world, whatever you may or may not do!

[Mizmazzle]

We’re probably going to need some 25oz denim tents if this thing is going to happen.

[scooter]

Missouri would be an easy one, for me. I'm in...

[SKT]

I should probably slow the roll here a bit on the SKT Iron Heart Barn Burner Hoedown. I gotta get some stuff in order first and then slowly introduce the idea to my better half. I could see it happening in the future though. Would be a lot of fun.

[Mizmazzle]

I did my basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri in January. Growing up in Southern California I didn’t know shit about cold weather. Who knew rain could freeze!! @SKT this plan is shaping up nicely!!

[Matt]

Can’t wait.

[scooter]

Hell, I could even ride the scooter to this one.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT haha. Sorry about that buddy. Probably my fault. I’ve been known to incite impromptu whiskey fire parties in the past. Stand down soldiers!!

[Nocturama]

@AdamJ - I hope you had a great time enjoying Wales’ record victory over Australia!! I did!!

[AdamJ]

@Nocturama thanks man. Was a brilliant trip. Just at the airport for the return journey now. Some assorted pics. Lovely city, even better food. Highlight for my dad was certainly getting to hang out with an old Welsh rugby player on our first night in town!

[Nocturama]

@AdamJ - Scott Quinnell hosts a lot of the hospitality events at the Principality Stadium when Wales are playing, and always has a good story to tell…especially beer in hand!
I’m off down to Exeter this evening.️

Edit: I hope you managed to get in the ground before KO!

[AdamJ]

@Nocturama We got to the ground about 2 hours early after a local told us it was a ball ache to get there!

Nice one getting down to the game tonight, think I might be heading to Everton on Sat.

[SKT]

Made it back from the farm in one piece. Didn’t burn the place down or drink too much but still had a fine time. Caught some small bass, crappie and bluegill in our pond. Too small to post in the “catch of the day thread” but it’s always fun to fish. I enjoyed the peace and quiet, now back to the real world…ugh. @Mizmazzle @Matt @scooter @Jett129 @endo Someday we’ll do the IH Barn Burner!
