You guys look great. And Alexandria is such a beautiful town too!
Indeed - Olde Towne Alexandria is pretty - did you notice the brick side walk? There are huge trees lining up the main street lit up with lights overhanging on the street - the trees are of course foliage-less and so you can see the lights clearly.

What a great bunch of pictures everyone looked grand, glad you had a good night and glad Mein could join in even though he was fashionably late.
Thanks Glen --- I was high-fashionably late indeed! BUT - I knew I was going to be late and told them many many times (here, on the evite and on the phone)... LOL. But luckily I still got to taste a couple.
AND I made a connection too -- the local St. Andrew's society needs someone to adjust their kilts because apparently their color guard and piper guys are LOSING weight! I can help with that! The society's drum major - as soon as he learned that I made my own kilt lit up and asked for my contact info. Now -- would they be interested in teaching this guy to learn how to play the bagpipe - I'd be happy to trade services...
Sadly, I can't remember the names -- the first one was of cask strength -- Bart added some water to it. *I know guys some of you remember the name of that one*. (part of the name has a "farcas" sound to it - pls. help me out)...
That was MacFarclas. It was also my first taste of that whisky and I quite enjoyed it.
I didn't see what he gave you for the second taste.
Definitely a great time spent with like minded folk.
I was also approached by the same fellow as Mein about The St Andrew's Society. The gent asked if I was interested in the Color Guard. Mein has something EXTREMELY useful to offer the Society....while all I would have to do would be to not trip
