We Heard Y'all Had Beer Here

(Above) The faithful start to gather on the Visions' patio. Beautiful day, beautiful people, beautiful beer, which made everything... well, beautiful.

(Left) Renegade Lee loses the longest tongue competition to Renegade Aaron... (Right) Not to be outdone, Lee promptly removes Aarons head and balances it on his shoulder to the delight of the group. It's all done with mirrors and stuff.

(Above, left) Matt amuses the crowd with dramatic dialogue from the motion picture "Ray", while Renegade Terry (above, right) applies more Chap Stick in anticipation of an exciting finish to the afternoon.

Some New       Faces in the     Crowd... or       "Our Car Broke Down. Can We  Use Your phone?"          

(Top) Lee heard about us... and decided to come anyway. (Above, left) Donnie and Jerry heard about us and wanted to see if it was true. (Above, right) Ms. Peep and her man apparently hadn't heard about us.

Jack, (Above, left) and Leon, (Center) now know what it means to fall under the spell of the skull (whatever THAT means...) (Above, right) David looks like a good candidate to drive us all home.

50 Years... 5 Decades... Half a Century... AND RED VELVET CAKE!

   The Renegade Beer Bust was actually two celebrations in one, as Skulls found it an easy opportunity to gloat over your webmaster's golden anniversary of life. That's it, EAT MORE CAKE, boys- eat EVERY BITE... and then, prepare for an active evening at home!

(Above, left) Preparing to enjoy a slice of red velvety goodness! (Above, right) Baker John and his flour-sifting assistant Carroll ply me with their succulent pastry. I waited 50 years just for for this!

(Above, left) Matt, sensing a camera, prepares a pose. Rafael, sensing cake, prepares to spring into action. (Above, right) Is there icing on my lip? Oh, wait. This picture was taken LAST week.
