Come Join me on The Whiskey Trail

As y’all know from my posts on Skin That Smoke Wagon, about innovative cocktails like the Jack Ryan and the New Fashioned, I enjoy a nice cocktail in the evening. So I have decided to start a new blog, The Whiskey Trail, where I can share those thoughts and cocktails without uprooting my barbecue fans.

Come join me!

Overlaps

First, if you don’t follow my other blog Skin That Smoke Wagon, I encourage you to check it out and subscribe. It gives me an outlet to share my other passions of food and drink.

This is a very interesting range, as it includes several stages that reflect an Old Western tempo: a jail, a graveyard, and a saloon. Now, when I first started shooting, there were maybe a dozen empty bottles on the piano, and I took a picture.

Then, I got into bourbon, and on a whim, I started carrying empty bottles to matches, and putting them on the piano.

Well, things grew, and here we are now, with more to come:

Another Blogspot Bites the Dust – This Time Involuntarily

Well, John Richardson, fellow shooter and author of No Lawyers – Only Guns and Money has had his blog removed by Blogspot. He says

So be sure to follow John on Facebook, In the meantime we will update you here as things resolve.
