Northern California Burns' Night -For those Wishing to Attend

[Monkey@Arms]

You know, there is something eerie about the flyer that Xena is holding but I can not put my finger on it....

Well done, thomsec. We actually joked at the last beer night that someone should make that type of never-ending image.

Best regards,

Jake

Dan the Brewer, aka "old Dan" and the lissome Lora claim to be attending!

Just heard from Chris and Kristiann... Looks like Devils Canyon Brewery will be well-represented!

The Semi-Official Brewery of the Nor Cal X-Marks Rabble.

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

So, if we have a strong representation from The Devil's Canyon Brewery, do you think we can induce them to bring a few (read 6-8) growlers of Full Boar Scotch Ale as their "contribution?" Or maybe some of the muffins and/or cheese?



Be well,

I think that those wishing to attend should contact (and send money) to the Amazing Madalyn no later then by the end of this week. We will need a final head count to plan on how much food and supplies we will need.

Whiles I won't be attending, I am following along with these threads so I can celebrate vicariously.

That said, I must demand on behalf of all the members of Xmarks that there are pictures of both you and your lovely wife swooning on the chaise longue / fainting couch.

I'll be there with my wife and 2 kids. And my muckle neep!!

Once at Montevalle follow the signs to the Old Mill. I ask that all drivers
respect the speed limits posted (15 MPH). As we our guests of this rather nice community we want to make sure to be respectfull. The Old Mill is a large building overlooking a pond.

As of the most recent count, there will be 62 attendees (including members of the Montevalle community)! Ought to be a wonderful time, as long as we don't run out of food....you can make haggis out of pretty much anything can't you?

Be well,
