Quick update...

After 3 days on the Bourbon trail, I got fed up with all of the driving, gift shops, and hotels. Wednesday afternoon, at about 5:00pm, I decided I wanted no more of it, and headed for home. I settled in around midnight. My own bed never felt so comfy.

I've got a few things that need my immediate attention. So, I'll be getting back to forum business, as time permits. I'll have a recap of my Kentucky journey, and a new world tour to announce, soon.

Lastly, I want to thank @Matt and Kt for being gracious hosts, and showing off some of the best of Bmore. To @Alex , @Giles , @Madame-Buttonfly , and the rest of the IHUK crew, I truly appreciate all that you do to bring us all together. And, to the rest of those who attended, as much as I'd love to name drop every one of you, adding @... would take far too much time, and likely lead to a name being forgotten. Just know, I love and appreciate you all, and hope to spend more time with you in the future. Cheers to the next meet...

Being a proud papa...

It was time for a wash, this weekend. It left me wondering how long I've had this as my primary pair. I checked my order history, and it turns out it's been longer than I thought. These landed on my doorstep more than 5 years ago. I have no idea how many wears. But, since I wash about twice a year, they've likely gotten wet 10 - 12 times...

Move-in Day...

I've been meaning to share this, since my return from Gosport, last fall. I was gifted a very special piece at the party. These cannot be bought. A very special thank you goes out to the entire IH family for this honor...

Black Friday, November 27th
Saturday, January 2nd

I'm back. I hope everyone will excuse my absence. Upon my return from Kentucky, I had to attend to some family things. Just as I thought everything was settled, the Sunday after my return, I was asked to work a 14 day stretch that a coworker had to excuse himself from. Two weeks and 152 hours of work later, things are finally looking more normal...

As my luck would have it, I developed a cold, Saturday. Thankfully, we were ahead of schedule, and I was given the option to take off Sunday. Which, I gladly took. I took today off, as well. There was no way I would've been able to function at work, today.

I'm going to try catching up on posts I had intended on doing a couple of weeks ago. But, it may take a few days...
