So today I went and picked up a keg of Guinness. Naturally this makes me a happy man. After getting the keg home and unloaded I swapped out the gas tanks, cleaned the lines, and swapped the faucet. Had a bit of an adventure with that, it’d been a while since I’d used that faucet and I didn’t clean it properly so when I first went to tap the keg, beer exploded from the faucet, but in really wrong places. After taking it apart and cleaning it like mad, got it tapped and it’s sitting, ready to go.
Tonight my brother T came into town, destined for Moon & Sixpence so he could do some writing. I decided that it’d be a good opportunity to get out and enjoy the decent weather (65 degrees or so), so I walked the roughly 2 miles to the pub. On the way I snapped some photos of the deciduous trees that are now punctuating the streets. I’m not usually a fan of fall anything, fall colors, fall holidays (well, except the food at Thanksgiving), and my birthday (which is coming up, drats!). However today they looked, well, kinda cool. Even though they’re all dying. 🙂
