We're going to be low-key at the new place this year, though I am planning to install my piece from last year 'permanently' at this spot



Props to my buddy CabelaBob for the help and CLARKcon for the visual inspiration.

Hey there. <looks around and finds a bottle of gin and other such fixings for a martini> Hope everyone who is going is nearly ready for the burn. I'll be doing an orphan burn that weekend here in Michigan and thinking of you. Cheers!! https://www.artofdrink.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/vodka-marti...

Hi. I'm here to offer a farewell to Joel the Ornery. Rest in peace sir. Thanks for the times we shared over the past 20ish years. Wish I had a good toasting image, but I am raising a glass of whiskey to the sky and thinking of you tonight.

To Joel!

RIP to Joel the Ornery. We shared some good times over the years. (2006)

Well, hello Doc Pyro, long time since we've seen each other. Hope you're well. It was a hot day today, so G&T is back on the menu. https://www.allrecipes.com/thmb/BSnn1DOIv9HresSFQZOym0N29uc=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/Gin-and-Tonic-Jennifer-Baker-2000-e3eeedfb40994399...

Thanks Savannah, I am keeping a watch out for it and will work through it when it happens.

Merlot for me tonight. Anyone want a glass?

And here we are a day away from the weekend. Hope you are all well. Just doing some gin and tonic tonight as it's nearly summer, and probably very much summer where some of you are.

Indeed Figjam.

Sorry to hear about your incident Trilobyte, and thanks for the thoughts.

Good morning and time for a coffee here. Anyone else?

Thanks man!

Done grieving, glad the bad part is over.

Ah, here we are near the end of May. My absence is explained by my Mother passing away on the 21st of last month. We finally interred her ashes today alongside my Dad at the veterans cemetery here in Holly, MI. It was rough leading up to then from the last time I was in the bar and kind of rough sin...

Soon the weekend will begin. Dreaming of a nice drink to soothe my soul. Recommendations anyone?

Well done sir.

How about a nice brew to start the weekend?

Yeah, kinda like that.

All well with you? How is the place in the mountains? All done with it?

Onto Vodka Tonics for the night. I did find some recordings I made of the sound that the art piece made. Here is one that I have cleaned up to remove a lot of the wind noise. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PSZGn8EYedKREM5yoZpTiurRUpsuChYu/view?usp=sharing I wish I had a place with mostly constant ...

Hi Ygmir. Well, not all behind me, but mostly.

It's past noon and time for a shot and a beer!

Hi all! Been a while. Had a lot of shit happen since the burn concluded, trying to get back to things. Had a great burn and saw some good folks. My art project went off great! Time for a quick coffee and then on to the day.

So quiet.

It's martini night, who's in?

Hiya Lucky!

Time for a G&T for me.

Anyone else in for one?

Good to see you too BVB.

Hoping to see many old friends in person this year.

Wheeeee! Sputnik! Ltns. Older plans coming to fruition is a great feeling. You’ve had a lot of time to procrastibake.

I sure have. Now it's time for a drink, been a long week and it's well after noon.

I am going out this year. Driving out with a friend of mine. May bring an art piece I've wanted to do since 2009, may bring a tiny bar that I wanted to do in 2010.

Howdy Bar peeps! I'm coming back out for my 20th anniversary. what's on tap?

<rummages through the shelves>

Hendricks OK?

Just starting to seriously look for some land not too far from where I am now, but far enough out that it feels away. Can't consider something as remote as the HoF. I have some friends interested too and we're just starting to discuss how that might work out.

Hiya Shoegirl! Whatcha drinking?

Well, maybe later. Anywho, looking for a retreat. Some place to call my own and share with friends.

<Strolls in from the deep playa>

Hi all! We may be seeing Tish soon.

<downs a bourbon>

Ah bourbon, how I love thee

Howdy! Set 'em up, I think this place might get busy again.

Hi folks! It's been forever. Miss you all.

Drinking Monkey Shoulder, a fine whisky.
