Awesome Affligem

The category for this entry is Lifestyle & Home. It could as easily have been the title.

On this cold and blustery Thursday, I fondly look back to last Sunny Saturday.

I spent Saturday afternoon hanging out with My Man Maxwell, playing a little b-ball, watching a little Wiggles, kicking around Mr. Beach Ball, flagging down the wondrous Ice Cream Truck, watching the neighbors get ready to do some active thing or other (this is Colorado after all) and, well....

And enjoying sitting in the sun on the patio, watching the snow melt and drinking the "Burgundy of Belgium."

Affligem, a fantastic Belgian brew from a monastary that's been going since 1074.

That's Ten Seventy Four. These guys are serious about beer. World wars? No problem. The Huns? Fuggedaboudit. Nuclear war -- whateva'.

And tonight? Looking forward to getting to write about the Colorado Rapids professional soccer team.

Impressive stuff.
