don't you have pay lakes out east?

There are some fantastic public lakes not far from where I live, but I was in the mood for river/stream fishing. I like that a lot more than standing on the shore of a lake and just casting.

Both are fun, but this is peak trout season here. }-)))°>

those female types i know told me those shoes look like ass and not to buy em.

Those female types you know are correct.

I recently tried Hudson Baby Bourbon, a small batch out of New York....It was completely over-hyped to me. Price is a bit out of line for what it is.

Blanton's and Woodford Reserve is literally half the price and I think I like them both better.

Agreed 100%. With a splash of ginger ale it almost took on a creamsicle taste. Which was better, but definitely not worth the price anymore if you're mixing it.

I'm still a fan of Buffalo Trace in bang for the buck I think.

I had some of their low grade stuff previously (below) which did not impress me at all, but this small batch is very good. I'd give it a 7 out of 10 for value/flavor.

I can't seem to find 4 roses anywhere. I need to look a little harder I guess.

Everytime I take a worktrip and stay in Kentucky, everyone tells me to get some whiskey across the street.

Never have

that's a 3 hour drive. :laugh:

Actually between the wife's love of horses, my love of bourbon and the fact it's not that far away - I'm surprised we haven't taken a weekend trip down there for some stable and distillery tours.

Make sure you see the stables first because you know you'll never make it otherwise.
