I guess this is the evening corollary to drinking morning coffee in the shower, another one of life&#8217;s great pleasures. Not only does one get to enjoy a comfortable, relaxing shower a tasty beverage comes along for the trip.<\/p>\n<p>The beer shown here is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigskybrew.com\/Our_Beers\/Moose_Drool\">Big Sky Brewing Company&#8217;s Moose Drool<\/a>, brought to me by my parents from their recent trip out west; seen poured into a glass <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/gallery\/v\/food\/beer\/IMG_6543.jpg.html\">here<\/a>. Also in this sampler is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigskybrew.com\/Our_Beers\/Scape_Goat\">Scape Goat Pale Ale<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigskybrew.com\/Our_Beers\/Big_Sky_IPA\">Big Sky IPA<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigskybrew.com\/Our_Beers\/Trout_Slayer_Ale\">Trout Slayer Wheat Ale<\/a>. All of these beers were quite good, and if I can find this stuff in Michigan (I think it&#8217;s distributed here&#8230;) I&#8217;ll likely pick some up.<\/p>\n<p>This shower comes at the end of a long, and slightly frustrating, day. Today was <a href=\"http:\/\/massivefallout.org\">Massive Fallout<\/a>, a lengthy group bike ride around a number of local trails and an event that I&#8217;d looked forward to all year. This morning the weather was rather poor, and being not-quite-properly dressed for it and somewhat uninterested in riding in cold and rainy weather I skipped out on the ride. I don&#8217;t regret my choice, but I can&#8217;t help but be disappointed at the weather which kept the event from being what I&#8217;d hoped. Oh well, maybe I&#8217;ll be able to do the ride next weekend with friends or something like that.<\/p>\n<p>(For what it&#8217;s worth, this photo was taken with the <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/2008\/09\/24\/olympus-stylus-850-sw\/\">Olympus Stylus 850 SW<\/a> that I&#8217;ve had for more than three years and which has accompanied me on almost every sweaty bike ride that I&#8217;ve taken, a couple of international trips, <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/gallery\/v\/family\/roxie\/P7031470.jpg.html\">a few swimming adventures<\/a>, and random other hostile places and it&#8217;s held up great. I&#8217;d highly recommend a camera from this series if one is looking to purchase a decent-image-quality pocket camera that can be taken along on almost all trips.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s to one of the greatest pleasures in the world: a quality beer while showering.
