I'll drink whiskey instead of water cause I can't stand to be sober in this place

Well I had a fairly eventful week last week. After working Monday and Tuesday a few friends and I headed up to Tahoe for a few days of fishing (caught three little guys and released them), relaxing (beer & dominos) and gambling (lost $240 - ouch!). We went on a little hike to see the salmon, and try to catch a glimspe of a bear eating the salmon. Of course 5 minutes after we leave the bear shows up - some friends were still there, so I got some pictures...

I came home Thursday night and woke up Friday morning with a terrible cold. However, I had tickets for WhiskeyFest that night, and I was not going to miss it. A bunch of us headed out to SF, ate at the 21st Amendment Brewery (great food) and then headed over to the Marriott. It was great - I got to catch up with Tom Bulleit (Bulleit Bourbon), Jess Graber (Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey), got to meet Jimmy Russell (Wild Turkey) and John Hansell (Malt Advocate Magazine). It was my dad and my brother's first time at one of these events, so it was really fun to have them there. But alas, large amounts of whiskey and head colds do not mix... I will leave it at that.

So my Saturday, Sunday, Monday and half a day Tuesday were spent on the couch with a terrible cold.

Looking forward to being well again (I think tomorrow is the day).
