The Big Picture: Ethnic clashes in Urumqi, China
Some visually graphic photos of the riots in Urumqi.
Hermann, Missouri
Sunday, Mom and I took the long road to Hermann, MO. All this month, they have Oktoberfest activities. The city has a large German presence in the city’s history, and it’s located in wine county. Picking a winery from the tourist center is like picking a color palette from Home Depot. It’s overwhelming with so many options.
After the tourist center, we headed to Tin Hill brewery. This is the smallest brewery that I’ve toured. It spans only a half block. Entering the building, they have a long bar with all of their beverages for sample purchase. Down the hallway, they have a self-guided tour. Visitors can see the tanks behind closed doors and read about the brewing process. There is, also, a gift shop and food options next door. I sampled 6 of Tin Hill’s beers and ate the German platter, which included a brat, red cabbage, and potato salad.
(Rant: Ok. When people order brats, especially Oktoberfest brats, there should be no special orders. Every brat should have sauerkraut and spicy mustard on it. Period. If you don’t like sauerkraut; Too Bad! No Brat 4 U! If you don’t like spicy mustard; Tough Shit! If someone even thinks about adding ketchup, they should get a kick in the head. If they cant enjoy how a brat was meant to be, than they should GTFO. It pains me when I hear people ordering like this.)
Brew Brew
By popular demand, here are the brewing photos. I would have taken more photos after lunch, but my batteries died and there was Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog to be watched.
New Theme
What do you think of this photo theme?
I really love my Pooh Bear theme, but I’ve considered switching to a more image heavy blog. It would allow me to feature my photos better.
Maybe keep the Pooh Bear? Then have the photo blog for my travels?
