Hey all,
Well, I guess it is that time. I am leaving town. I accepted a new job in Virginia and will be leaving in about 3 weeks. Lets get the quick sappy stuff out of the way first.
I have not been to a lot of the brew club meetings lately, so many of the new faces I do not know. However, for those of you who I do, thank you for the warm memories that you send with me on my journey. The beer nuts and the special people in it (yes I mean short bus type special) will be one of in not the largest thing I will miss about Cedar Rapids. When I got here 5 1/2 years ago, we knew no one in town, but the beer nuts welcomed us and we felt instantly as if we had lived here many years.
I hope to keep in tourch with all of you both through the forums and email, and God willing hopefully a couple of trips back to CR for a beer fest or two. I want to wish the club and its membership the best of luck as you move forward through this time of expansion.
Last peice of business, I have been collecting empty bottles for some time now, that have been left after club meetings at my home and though general consumptions. I probably have several cases of each 12 oz and 22 oz bombers that have been de-labeled and cleaned. Are there any non keggers out there who could use some empties. They just need a saniziting and they are ready to fill?
