I am not sure what it means

but only the Rotarians were able to break awayearly for the tour. Stewart Martin, Vicki Yates and I spent a wonderful Wednesday afternoon with Ryan Wilcoxen touring his work place, Clear Creek Distillery.

Though I admit I found these photos on the web, we got the full tour and tasting and left with our favorites for ourselves and gifts. It truly was interesting and fragrant - they had just crushed the pears - but my personal favorite was the scent in the barrel room. If only I had the kind of bank account to buy my own 1/4 barrel of whiskey...I sure would! thanks again Ryan- what a great afternoon.

Our latest meeting on November 15th...

...included a potluck of delicious foods. And apparently one really strong stinky cheese that got a thumbs down from Trish! Ha - it was a part of my grand plan to ensure everyone was willing to try new foods - and all passed with flying colors. After the "Does this taste bad to you?" comment, we all dutifully checked by tasting it! This group is filled with adventurous spirits. Yeah team.
