(note of November 21, 2003:)
Sometimes after success, we humans like to celebrate with a 'cold one'. The meal we had after attending a lovely flower show, of which I captured many flowers digitally, was definitely a celebratory one.

After the flower show, we ate at Thunder Canyon Brewery, which is in the same mall as the flower show was. Julia saw the restaurant's sign and it drew her like a magnet. We have found our new most favorite Tucson restaurant! I had the "GREEK GOD" pizza - feta and mozzarella cheeses with marinara, black olives, sun-dried tomatoes, red onions, and walnuts - a full 9 inch pizza!, two glasses pink lemonade, and many swallows of various freshly brewed beers.

One of them was an "obsidian porter", a "robust, full-bodied porter, dark and rich with a deep red hue. Brewed with a hearty portion of chocolate malt in addition to added roasted malts." Julia held up her glass, "See, the foam has formed a reindeer on my glass!" Click!
