Beer and Baseball

It was way too nice today to mess around with pictures on the computer, so no Cubs entry today. I still intend to make that an entry, but it might not happen this weekend!

After picking up Matt and dropping him off at the train station at the airport (so glad his folks are doing okay!), I headed home and did my workout and a few chores, but also had time to enjoy the perfect weather out on the deck.

The perfect weather looks to hold throughout the weekend, and tomorrow (Saturday) promises to be especially fun. First we’ll be attending the launch party of the new (old) Drewry’s Brewing Company downtown. Drewry’s used to be brewed in South Bend, and a Chicago entrepreneur decided to start the brand up again, and it is currently being brewed in Milwaukee. They hope to build a new brewery in South Bend at some point.

There will be music, food, and plenty of Drewry’s! The party is from noon to 5, but we probably won’t get there until around 2, because we have a second event to go to later on.

Ken’s company party is also tomorrow, a picnic at Coveleski Stadium, AKA The Cove. Our South Bend Silver Hawks will be taking on the Great Lakes Loons, and the company picnic will start at 5, and the game starts at 7. So after the Drewry’s party, we’ll be heading over to the Cove for another party. Whew! It’s going to be a long but fun day, and I will definitely have to pace myself!

In a nice bit of serendipity, it was announced today that the first time that the new Drewry’s will be made available to the general public is at Saturday’s Hawks game!

It’s shaping up to be a fun weekend, with beautiful weather. I hope yours will be as pleasant!
