Hey Weaze! I have not brewed all summer as well, seemed like every time I had a chance the temps were pushing 90 degrees and that is no fun. We still need to get together and do some brewing, either on your end or mine.
Two daughters, that will keep you busy, ours have girlscouts, cross country, basketball, etc. They will also give you a few gray hairs. Sorry to hear about everything going on with you and your family, sending some positive waves your way.
So the question becomes: do you wear pants while driving a manual?
