As a family we have experienced many traveling tales together. One favorite is the time that we traveled to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for a job interview one Christmas. It was really chilly outside, but the beach was still so beautiful. The company we were interviewing with put us up in a gorgeous room overlooking the ocean. While we were there we decided to take in the sights. We visited the Hard Rock Café, the NASCAR Experience, and some of the theme park style areas. However, the most memorable would have to be the Christmas lights we were able to drive through. We pulled up to a place on the beach that had a Christmas light display put on by Chick-Fila. It was truly amazing for our precious peeps! We were able to not only drive through miles of Christmas lights, but we were able to do so actually driving on the beach! All the while listening to a music CD of Christmas music put out by Chick-Fila. The best part was the song called “We wish you’d eat more chicken” that went along with the tune of “We wish you a Merry Christmas”. Our kids still sing that song to this day!

January 29th, 2010Exploring the finest beers
January 6th, 2010I like to learn about beer. Now, I don’t know that I am any kind of expert, but I can tell you that it’s pretty neat to learn about them in just as far as it helps you buy your next one on the shelves at the stores.
But one of my new faves is Samual Adams lager. Now, I am not 100% sure about what a lager really is, but this Sam Adams Beer Review helps me understand the taste for sure. It seems like the malt and hops are super well balanced and the beer comes off very refreshing with a nice deep aftertaste that I just love.
That Jim Cooke dude was pretty smart when he made up the Sam Adams beer brew. Check it out soon guys, you won’t be disappointed one bit!

Beer Reviews Are Not All Created The Same
January 6th, 2009I really like to read and browse all the beer blogs on the internet. In fact, I think there is more great beer info on the www than in all the books in the library. Now, my favorite beer reviews site is called Big Beer Blog. The guy that runs the thing is hilariously funny and has a very interesting take on the way beer can and should be reviewed, tasted, drank, whatever.
He basically says that a lot of the beer experts out there (he calls them beer snobs) are nothing more than cats who don’t relate to the regular beer drinker anymore. I can appreciate this because I don’t really know anything about beer kinds, types, styles, whatever. I just know I like to drink it and get buzzed ya know? What this guy over at the beer site does, however, is he compares the craft beers to ones that we all know and love on our regular store shelves.
Now he doesn’t compare them saying that the beers he is tasting are worse tha Miller and Budweiser, but he mainly kind of talks about if you like Bud, then your next in line beer should be “etc etc etc”
Anyway, check his beer blog fer sure, I linked it above for you guys.
