the last hurrah

It was sunny and 70 on Saturday. It was chilly and rainy today, and it will only get worse from here on out. I really wish I could have enjoyed it, but I had prior plans. I would like to have gone out into the woods to see the fall colors. Also, I really needed to mow the lawn. It gets dark so early now, that I can't mow it on a weekday unless I take time off work.

There was a whisky tasting in Wausau, about a three hour drive away. We had some ostensibly fabulous whiskies. This probably won't mean much to most of you, but we had
Speyside 43y
Craigellachie 21-year
Glenburgie 21y
Highland Park 25y
Talisker 20y
Glendronach 24y
Ardbeg 1978 (~21y)

I didn't think all of them were fabulous, but some were. Most people didn't agree on which were their favorites, either.

After the tasting I went for a walk around the small downtown Wausau and took some photos. I witnessed an altercation and made a brief statement to the police. I went to bed pretty late that night, so I was really tired today. Hopefully I can get to sleep easily tonight.

I went to gaming tonight. I didn't really want to go, after being gone, but I didn't want to miss gaming, either.
