Peter P and I hit up a stream, then some beer....more drinking than beer.  Will get to that in a bit.  Were into some brookies, didn't do too bad consider the water was low and fish were spooky as chit....crawling and rock hoping and all that fun stuff.

no birdies were injured in the course of this trip:

so I'm completely wasted at this point.

we hit up French Broad brewery on the way back, then Ruby's local, local place in "downtown Haw Creek", which is like a "town" in Asheville...confusing I know.

then had more beer at Peter's house...fun times had by all...

never had an alt beer before, but this chit was good stuff.    -0-

That was the first one I have ever seen.  I thought something was wrong with it becasue it allowed us to get so close to it.  It didn't fly away until I actually had walked past it.

Nice brookies

Thomas Creek is some good chit.. the appalachian pale ale is pretty good to

The bird was definitely a surprise.  It seemed totally out of place too.  Peter about tripped over him and then yelled at me (in a whisper) to come over to snap a photo.

I definitely like the Thomas Creek Red...I found out about them at a beer festival a year and a half ago, been able to get their beer pretty readily now in the Asheville area. 

If we took pictures of all the beer we had after fishing, I'd have to start another post.
