Raccoon River Brewing Company

 Shuey and I first went to Raccoon River Brewing Co.  Good homemade beer.

 

Stix in Windsor Heights / West Des Moines

 We met Britt and Cherish at the bar at the Waterfront seafood joint.  Then we went to 3 bag/3rd base and find that it’s too busy (on a Thurs).  Now we’re at Stix in Windsor Heights.  Stix is a chain of pool bars in the area with 10-15 pool tables.  It’s a nice laid back place to play pool, less gritty and cheaper than Big Dog Billiards.  Instead of renting a table hourly, you feed quarters to the table like at normal bars.  Although they have stools at the bar, I wouldn’t come here just to drink, if you’re not playing you’ll be bored.

 

Brittany at Stix

 Brittany actually came around for once.  We rarely see her now that she doesn’t work in Des Moines.  We’ll see her again… next year maybe.

 

Rock plays Pool at Stix

 Rock came out to pound some beers with us.

Britt and Cherish Booty

“We’re wearing the same exact jeans.”  But I don’t need an excuse to get a good booty shot in.

Cherish waiting for me

It’s only Thursday, we still have to work in the morning.  Luckily Cherish is much better at knowing when it’s time to call it a night than I am.

 

Rock’s Honda

Rock’s got some sick car doors.  They can swing out like regular or lift up.  You wouldn’t believe how useful this is for tight parking spaces.  Rock swears he sits on a phonebook to reach the steering wheel.

That first picture of the break is great. It’s hard to get the timing just right on these. Great job!
