Lots of things have been going on in the last few months. The express tour is as follows:
- Heidi got a job. She works at Zio Johnnos here in Coralville. She doesn't seem to hate it, so that is a bonus.
- I got a motorcycle (and accompanying license). It's cheap, old, small, but also fun and easy to ride. Looking for a sissy bar so Heidi isn't afraid to get on. Syd LOVES to ride.
- Brewed my third batch of the year. It's a hefeweissen, a german wheat beer, that came out soooo good. Just waiting for it to carb.
- We are getting ready for our summer vacation out east. We had wanted to go to Washington on the way out, but it looks like time may be against us. We'll see. Should be a lot of fun anyways. My 20th class reunion is going on while we are out there.
- We(I) planted a small garden under our back deck. We have broccoli, peas, watermellons and pumpkins planted. The broccoli and peas are doing pretty good.
- I also planted hops rhizomes along the edge so I can trellis them up to the deck above. I have 2 cascade plants going along with a goldings and a willamette that finally came up. It will be fun to watch them grow up the trellises this summer. I don't care how much of a yield I get as long as I get enough for at least 2 (one cascade and one english) batches of beer.
Anyways, that's all for now. Hopefully I won't be another 2 months between posts.
