BeastBuzz 2014

It will be Yeungling again. I'm not a big beer fan, especially for mass-produced stuff, but it's not bad. Bud/Bud Light is awful, sorry. :)

I can stomach Budweiser, but Bud Light is just a sugary, corn-tasting mess of awful.

Usually I'm more of an IPA guy, but those don't tend to mesh well with trying to lose weight, as they're 3-400ish calories in a pint.

Sooo, I'm all about whisky/whiskey and sometimes tequila if it's disguised well.

You're on your own there. :)

Bourbon and scotch for me.

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer....

Thorogator?

Scotch on the rocks. And I mean ice!

Yep, He's bad to the bone.

I was hoping to attend, but life happens. Oh well, maybe next year.

Jeff, for those of us arriving for the early morning ERT around 8ish-8:30am, should we use Western Rd. (like last year) or the main parking entrance? Any other special instructions we should know? Did I miss an email with all this in it? If so, I apologize.

Actually, after doing just a bit of reconnaisance, I found that George Thorogood was remaking a John Lee Hooker tune...originally recorded in '66 (so even before *I* was born).

I prefer Troegenator, actually.

I have no guidance on parking.

A midday BourbonBuzz doesn't sound too shabby to me.

I was 2.

Thorogood did a number of covers of those bluesmen, and did a pretty fine job of it.

A heads up for driving to KI, the Western & Southern tennis tournament also starts Saturday and is at the same highway exit as Kings Island. The gates open there at 8:00 am, so expect higher than normal amounts of traffic at the exit.

The tournament attracts a decent crowd. All the major tennis stars are typically in the tournament.

No way! I love that tournament. Maybe we can sneak out there for a bit on Sunday. Traffic is a non-concern if you're staying at Great Wolf.

On Sunday Stricker's Grove is also open to the public for Family Day.

Oh! The elusive Stricker's Grove!

Looks like Jeff picked the right weekend. Coincidence or evil plot? Hmm?

Yeah, I think we need to do The Grove. Hopefully it doesn't get super crowded. I think Simon would get pretty bored with Tennis.
