Three Beautiful Things 05/17/2021: Rose Lake Visit, Black Monday, IPA from Kendrick

1. Ed and I swung by Jake and Carol Lee's house on Rose Lake. I hadn't seen either of them for quite a while and I enjoyed seeing them again. Jake showed me the many improvements he's made to their property and, as we left made our way toward the highway, Jake pointed out the spots where trees used to stand, but that had been blown down by the winter's wind storms. 

2. Jake drove us to CdA where we picked up Mike Stafford and we headed down for some reel spinning entertainment at the CdA Casino. I couldn't remember when I made my last visit to this casino and it was fun to try out some games and, as it turned out, win a little money. 

3. Around noon, Lars and Stu joined us in the Red Tail Bar and Grill for lunch. It was fun to have a knot of Class of 72 guys together again, to get caught up on the latest news, and have some good laughs. I ordered a 1904 IPA, brewed by Hardware Brewing of Kendrick, ID -- a brewery I visited back in Sept. of 2019 and a place I very much look forward to going to again. The beer was tasty and so was my prime rib dip with fries.
