Life gets in the way

Post by PUGIDOGS »

Hello all, life got in the way!!! Do to a man’s responsibilities I shut everything down to focus on priorities. I logged on to read every few years and see how much this group has grown!!! I also see how well Pugirum has done to help the next generation. Most all my equipment is stuffed into shed out back. It’s now time in my life to dust it off and set it up. I sure hope to reconnect with old friends after nearly 15 years. Pugi

welcome back!
i made some rum (can't recall who's recipe) in 2017. it was pretty awful when it was new, but 5 years later, it's all smooth a fruity and really nice. glad i made a fairly large amount and just left it in the barrels.
the angels have been having some solid piss ups with it, it's about 1/2 gone, through no fault of mine!
I finally quit drinking for good.

now i drink for evil.

Good to see you back Pugi! It does seem to be that kind of interest where even if priorities do cut back the involvement one can't help but look in from from time-time and note the progress in the art. Enjoy!
