SJ: Made my first all grain beer on a new toy. Made some mistakes, made a mess, cut myself - but I had a really good day. I think I made some beer.

NSJ: Spending most of Sunday fitting full-coverage fenders to bike that was never intended to wear full-coverage fenders. There was drilling, tapping, cutting, p-clips on, p-clips off, p-clips on again, then p-clips off for good, dremel work, leftover cateye light clamps, some skateboard deck grip, cable ties, a Problem Solvers Fender Flute, and swears. Many, many swears.

SJ: Riding bike with full-coverage fenders through chilly Sunday puddles.
