Kate and I went up to Iron Hill for their Barrel Bourbon and Bugs event. They had brewed small batches of twelve beers. Six wild ales and six bourbon barrel-aged dark beers. We got both samplers and dove in. So many delicious beers were in there. My favorite was the Flemish Red (no big surprise there.) The Saison Wood was great as well in the wild set. The Bourbon Wee Heavy was great, and the Bourbon 2 Logan TJ was just perfect for the style.

Jamie and Matt met us there after we had started and we got food to go with our many beers. I got a glass of the F. Red because I so rarely get to have sour beers. The place was really busy, and I'm not surprised. I hope they have more of these events in the future.

I headed to Williamstown where I was shooting a 70th birthday party for DaVonne's grandmother. I got there on time, which turned out to be really early. So I took some shots of the setup and then just wandered around and talked to people, shooting groups when they came in.

Once the guest of honor arrived they did their surprise and then got down to dinner shortly after. I got to have some of the great food and take a break to eat with DaVonne. After dinner they gave some really touching speeches about how she has affected all of their lives. It was pretty awesome to see such a happy family and hear some of the amazing stories. It was a great event and I had a really good time working it.

Later I went to Ryan's and we had a long walk around the neighborhood and then came back to his house to play some Mario Wii.
