      New Mexico is on my radar for potential property purchase.  I hear great things.  I’m excited to finally make it through that way.  Thanks for all the good info.

        I picked up a few of the offerings from Martin House Brewing in Fort Worth.  Here’s tonight’s selection…

            Coincidentally, I drank a Martin House beer last night- True Love raspberry sour. Pretty good, if you like the style.

            I'm looking forward to seeing your Big Bend experience. I've wanted to go down there for a few years now for a trail race, but events conspired against me both times I signed up for it.  Maybe someday…

              @Chris that race looks awesome (10k for me please).  Maybe one day for me too.

              He pickle beer was recommended to me but I wasn’t sure.  Is it good?  The pretzel stout is very pretzelly.  It’s good.  I got two other styles, a black currant sour that is super sour and a double red IPA that is really good.  My daughter made me leave the beer store in Texarkana because she was terrified of their Halloween decorations so I was sorely in need of beer.  Specs in Waco had what I needed.  Katie was in the fridge yesterday and said “Why is the fridge 33% beer?”  I guess she meant that as a bad thing.  I loved it.

                Because there's crap taking up the other 67%…

                  Yeah, the Pickle beer (and subsequent spicy pickle) is phenomenal. If you like
                  Pickles - salty, Briney, good bite, but smooth.

                    New Braunfels Brewing Co. also does a really popular pickle beer- PKL FKR, plus a couple of variations, like Hell Yeah, which includes jalapenos.  It's not widely distributed, but if you can find it, it might be worth a try.  In general, I like NBBCo. beer a lot. Very Seldom Naughty is excellent.

                      I do 5% chocolate but that's as far as I go…

                        Fantastic.  Thank you!

                        So far Coleman is awesome.  The small towns on the way in including Santa Anna were totally adorable, as any self respecting small town should be.  Excited to check those out.  The campground is the nicest one I’ve ever stayed at.  It’s huge.  I’ll get some pictures up today.  The sign on the bathroom door warns it’s fawning season for the deer so if you see a baby deer chilling all by itself don’t approach it because the mother is nearby.  So far I’ve seen more deer than people, but no fawns.  Also, I’ve seen tons of pictures of the milky way in the night sky, but this is the first time I’ve actually seen it.  Alas my iPhone will not provide a clear enough picture for you.  😢
