I would be very poor company in this thread as this is my idea of indulgence..... Not at all. I'm pretty sure that I've posted about a ginger ale that I'm partial to.

Since it's still 107 degrees outside and I'm on my bike, I feel compelled to have a couple of beers from our local brewery before riding home.

Let me get this straight - you're drinking and riding and posting, all at the same time?
No way do I have the skills to pull that off.
Salut!

you're drinking and riding and posting, all at the same time? Well, the order is something like this. I leave work in 15 minutes. Ride to the beer place. Drink beer. Ride home when it cools down to 101.

Take the path closer to the edge, especially if less traveled

desert dweller, are you switching drinks or sticking with the same brew?

desert dweller, are you switching drinks or sticking with the same brew? First 2 pints were Barrio Blonde ale. I just switched to Barrio Rojo, a red ale. Also ordered some food. I miss spending money on being served.

I'm being served in my own home, with Mrs. Driftwoody bringing my dinner and drinks to me while I relax comfortably on the recliner. Today it was leftover Chinese and Chardonnay, but she came home with a 6-pack of Deschutes Obsidian which I'll likely have brought to me with a nice homemade meal tomorrow.
The reason for such excellent service has to do with the titamium plate & 7 screws surgically installed a week ago to repair the spiral fracture in my left fibula at the ankle.
No hiking for me for a couple months or more.

The good beer and good service takes the sting out of titanium. Tip her well if you want to become a regular.
