I’m in the process of building a new site that focuses around beer and the social culture that this great fine mix of hops and barely create. If your a drupal developer (modules, themer) etc, drop me a note.

Also any beer fanatics who are really into beer drop me a note I might need some people for beta testing this new site which I hope goes live by the end of the year.

A small tease of the logo, which btw looks great on t-shirts!

Snowboarding at NorthStart, Lake Tahoe

I went up for a quick trip to Lake Tahoe for some spring snowboarding and also hit the Gizmodo party at NorthStar. Gizmodo is a gadget site and if your a geek or just love gadgets its definatly worth a daily read.

Gizmodo has a cool party with lots of food drinks, and a pretty kick ass DJ. Rumor has it that their will be a download of what he was playing soon.

The snow was great the weather was about 40-45F and well the lines where non existent. Anyhow here are some pics of the last of the snow season in lake tahoe… Enjoy…

Little GPS tracker on the iP

hone called MotionX

GPS this allowed me to track my average speed, max speed and time. This was on the way back from Tahoe usually a 3+ hr trip.

Ok, Car is a bit packed with my snowboard and had to make sure it wouldn’t hit me in the head while driving up to Tahoe.

Shall I stop for some wine, Sonoma and Napa are so close.

After a drive its always good to refresh with a IPA or two

BridgeTender Bar in Tahoe City. I have been going to this place for years and from the cabin its about 1 mile hike down, of course never made it hiking back up after drinks

My board, about time to upgrade, my bindings are screwed up and almost came off at the end of the day.

Look Ma, no lines!

Good day of snowboarding in the spring… Off to the Gizmodo party for some food, drinks and prizes.

The Real Budweiser – Budvar

Budweiser – Budvar,

I just created a flickr group that focuses on pictures of beers from around the world. My buddies and I have a habit of taking cell phone snaps of our drinks and sending them to each other, It kinda gets you in the mood if your buddy send yous a nice margarita at noon and gives you something to look forward to when you leave work.

If you want to join my group head on over to Beers around the World and feel free to contribute.

Tahoe Hike Cheers

A few weeks back, a few friends and I went up to our regular place in the mountains for some nice R&R, Hiking, Drinking and a game of Mensch argere Dich nicht (The Board game “Sorry” for US folks). While we did our battle of Sorry the guy who never seems to loose that game won again. Oh well we all know he cheated.

We did some really nice Hikes both days in Tahoe. The first one was a 6-7 mile hike to Ellis Peak and the other one Barker Pass into Tahoe city where we ended right up at the bridge tender for a few pints of beer before catching a cab back to the cabin.

If you would like to see the trails we did and pictures taken load these files into the Free Google Earth viewer.

If you don’t have Google Earth Installed check out the hikes in Google Maps.

Enjoy…. Can’t wait till the snow starts falling for some snowboarding.
