Visit to The Outyard
« on: May 23, 2015, 10:21:25 am »
I made the 6 1/2 hour drive to meet LazyBkpr for the weekend. Excited to see how he does things and to hang out with a new friend, compliments of this forum!  I'll keep you posted!

Have a wonderful time Zweefer! Your in good learning hands with Scott. I've had this vision of a summer long trip to visit a handful of well learned beeks on this forum, Scott would be one of them. Looking forward to the updates  ;)

Two more weeks and Scott will be here. Watch the world tilt the other way when the two of us get together. I just caught him a 12 in. timber rattler to play with when he gets here.   :o   :laugh:

12 inch? That wont even make one boot... Might make a good hatband though!   ;D
   I do have a little concern about how much trouble Iddee is going to get Ted and I into..  If you look up Ornery in the dictionary theres a picture of Iddee!




   So Zweef brought me Homemade beer, home made maple syrup, and a bottle of Sailor Jerry Rum.. yah, thats what we look like after testing the rum..   All I gave him so far was a case of worms......
   We gabbed away all day, and as it neared midnight we were forced to call it a day.. great time. Really glad he made the trip!

Way too much fun for you not to be here Perry.. two days gone in the blink of an eye. The wife claims they took the normal amount of time to pass, but I swear they were way too short..
   Zweef is a master brewer as well. The beer he brought with him is outstanding to say the least. Worth way more than a few bees.

God, I could have used a weekend like that.  I do wish I had been there, love the dull eyes and numbed grins.

I suppose the next step is to set up a WWB Reunion?  Then more of us can enjoy a weekend like this/that!
