last night

Last night's cocktail and cheese tasting event was an event from beginning to end!!  We prepared for the trip to the old industrial area down by the Missouri River and surrounding  railroad yards by taking along maps and our Garmin....( Kansas City's old industrial area)
But we got lost... with some wiggling around we found ourselves about a block ( 200 feet) from our destination but blocked by a huge long freight train... lots of lights flashing  etc. No way were we going to park and wiggle our way between the freight cars.
More wiggling until we found a road and bridge over the tracks and the train... We found the last parking spot across from our destination and as we walked across the street , the train started to move. Figures, right?!
"Reigers" is a distillery built  in an old bottling plant. They have done a marvelous rehab on the inside ! Beer used to be "piped" from a nearby brewery and bottled here. Kansas City was a major brewery city... way back then.
Anyway... the event was good. The sheep's milk cheeses were wonderful. Two of the cocktails were tasty. Two had too much vermouth as an under taste.
Good thing I had my own designated driver for our trip home...
Looking forward to the "Dirt Farm's" calendar of events being posted next month!



Last week Bob picked up a movie from the library.... "Bohemian Rhapsody"....about Freddie Mercury and Queen.  We really enjoyed it and the actor who played Freddie could really duplicate his singing...
