Beers with Friends


Nothing beats good German beers, good conversation, maybe some hearty German food - a little sausage among friends - reliving good times - always a beautiful thing. Thank you Bill, Michele, Colleen, John (oops Hans), Ray, Mary and Steve and Stac - yes we all would rather be in a beer garden in Rothenburg or a wine stub in Barr, France or a vineyard in Alsace or Italy - but Gustav's will do and we manage to have a great time no matter what locale we find ourselves on this particular birthday celebration - year 2007.

Here is to many more whether they be in Greece, in front of a TV in Mulhausen or here in beautiful Portland, Oregon. It's first and foremost the company and tonight's was the best!

Steve and Stac are off to California to scout colleges, Bill and Michele are journeying to Italy for a wedding, a little wine and so much more - the Burgers are eating bruschetta and drinking Sangiovese as we speak - with ouzo on the way... I will be making due in Vegas and Utah - and we all have Bench Lake to look forward to.

My present to myself - this nice picture of a couple of cold ones in Metz, France. Here's to you Hans!! Skol!
