Default Finally photography has paid off!!!



In beer!

Long story short, the care taker of an abandoned brewery, opened in 1855, gave me a tour of the place because I'm scouting locations for a shoot...

... at the end... he looks at me, hands me 4 six-packs of a variety of Pig's Eye beer!

He says, "I'm (so and so) the owner and brewmaster of Pig's Eye, have some on the house"

Enter

Hell yes! Almost as good as getting actual money!

Cheers!

I forgot you have to be 21 to drink alchohol over there. That caused no end of problems for me on honeymoon even though I was 27 at the time. Having to get my passport out will nilly was a pain.

It threw me for a loop on my Alaskan cruise last summer: I had just turned 21. But legal age here in Ontario is 19, and across the river in Quebec it's 18. So I'd been drinking *ahem* LEGALLY for years already.

Woo-hoo!

I wonder how many under 21s enter that site, and press the 'not 21' option.
