Holy cripes Ron, My wife and I were there two weeks ago. I got compliments the whole time there. We had just come back from a hike to Yankee Basin. Was wearing my MacKenzie I use for hiking and such. At least, like you said, the bartender's heart was in the right place.

Ya, elk burgers are good. Also a fan of buffalo flesh; it's been a long time though...

If there isn't a dead animal on my plate, my meal is just not complete.

I'll drink to that!

You know what, the guy didn't quite understand the difference, but that's awesome that he sort of recognized it

How's ostrich compare to ground turkey and ground chicken?

Like night and day...Ostrich is like a beefy red meat, and very lean.

Yes it is. I do appreciate that his heart was in the right place. It just makes me chuckle that people assume that if it's a kilt, it is by nature a Utilikilt. It's almost as if people have a hard time grasping that we might wear any other type.

Without the meat industry, there would be no leather industry. Without the leather industry, I would have nothing to do with my spare time. Hooray meat!

Yak is really, really good. I was surprised, first time I tried it...there's a local Tibetan restaurant that gets their yak from here in CO somewhere, and it goes in a stew. I was expecting gamey and maybe a little tough...not so at all!

Travis, I didn't know you did leatherwork. Maybe we should talk over a beer on Saturday if you'll be around...I keep wanting to put some supplemental "don't burn me" leather on my shop clothes and have no idea where I should even start.
