Passing the time til Ice !!
« on: Nov 11, 2007, 10:16 AM »
Well for me it is playing Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4 online.  What is everybody else doing to pass the time I know most of you are going to say Hunting but what else.  Also if anybody else is playing those games on XBOX look me up and we can go to battle together..........sst4 life666 is my name on Live

IM waiting on the first deer of the season and going through the ice fishing stuff to keep me thinking about first ice :thumbsup:. Hope it wont be long, had some ice on the pond today and the pool was locked up it might have 2" on it by the morning ::) might give it a try I herd there was a lot of NOTHING in it. Sure would feel good to drill a hole, even thou its in the pool. ;D

You can have your 4% busch.   ;D  I'll usually brew in the range of 7-10%.   Keeps you a little warmer on the ice :)  If I'm slummin', my beer of choice is Natty. 

More a hobby than anything really.  Yeah, I like to drink, but I give a lot away as gift and it's great to have 3-4 beers on tap when you have a party (use the old SS soda kegs).  Kit brews is now I got started, I now crush all my own grains and mash (steep) them.  I do 10gal batches at a time.  I get my bulk grains right from OPB in skowhegan.
