Two Brothers Brewing Company

I hesitate to post this since it will only seem to confirm thoughts that we drink too much. But it was just too good not to give it a mention. Earlier this week, Ashley and I went to Two Brothers Brewery for dinner. We had been meaning to go for a while now. It is just a few minutes from our house so there are really no excuses not to go. Especially since we are all about the local beer. As it turns out, we have been missing some good stuff! It's a fairly new brewery (they have been around for 10 years but as a very small operation until recently) so you never know. They only recently opened the new brewery down the road from us. It was some of the best micro brew we had ever tried! Ashley had the Cane and Abel, and I had the sampler flight. Combine that with the fact that the restaurant had a cool pub vibe, the people were friendly, and the food was excellent and you have a winner. I'm pretty sure the guy who came to talk to us for a few minutes made up 50% of the two brothers. I think it's safe to say we will be going back from time to time. So if anyone is looking for some good micro brew, you know where we live...

Wildlife

Continuing on with the job hazard theme, I thought I would post these pictures I took the other day when I was pulling up to my office. I almost didn't see them because they blended in with the ground, but two coyotes were standing right along side the road looking for some white deer to snack on.

They didn't seem all that concerned that I was stopping to take pictures. I wanted to get closer but figured I would just keep hoping for a better zoom lens instead.

Work Hazards

Every job has its challenges. That's why they have to pay you right? Work can get hectic and stressful but it's all a part of paying the bills like the Man intends. I'm fine with that. But sometimes work challenges can get a little bizzare. Take the other day for instance, when I was walking down a system in one of our old labs and came across this sign:




It's the first time a room has threatened me with cancer deliberately. We have lots of rooms that say radiation hazard, etc. but I've only recently seen these that smack you across the face and dare you to enter. No wonder we don't have a true retirement plan. It keeps the job interesting anyway.
