WHAT HAPPENED.......
9:30 Ft. St. John boys arrive, earlier than Ron had planned. Started tasting. After about 3 or 4 beers, Spill finally showed up with the CO2 tank, more kegs and taps. One pint for him then chauffer the rest of the crew to the BX pub for lunch. Good lunch, so so beers. Call from Brunno, he is heading throught town from Vancouver, and he linked up with us. After lunch to liquor store to check out selection. A few strong ales etc... Back at Ron's more beer sampling, a few surprises. Pizza for supper. A certain soliciter who will remain unamed was acting like a dummy with out a head, but he finally passed out, so we threw him in the corner. We must be getting old by, 11:30 every one was in bed sleeping....
