Dushanbe Teahouse & Comrade With Matt ~ Pliny For President 28Jul24

Kala & I headed to Boulder to meet friends for late afternoon dining at the Dushanbe Teahouse. Reservations were made several months in advance; the teahouse was constructed in Tajikistan in Boulder's sister city there, Dushanbe and offered to Boulder and rebuilt there. Wow. Cool spot and we attended with good friends. Thanks M&J for getting the rez. Food and mated tea was tasty.

Kala & I were late to the rez as I25 N was closed at Larkspur due to an accident. We, and everybody else returning home from WE travels, had to find an alternate route. Ultimately we got off on County Line and headed to Palmer Lk; we entered a 3 mile long queue of cars entering Palmer Lk and even were delayed further by a train, but eventually turned on to Parry Pk Rd/CO 105 headed north ~ we got back on I25 taking Tomah Rd back. Normally it's 95min to Boulder for us, today it was 250min but the incumbent team had opening totties and we arrived just 30min late to rez for the fun meal and talk.
MLC texted during our return to COS and we were able to grab a visit in Denver's Comrade brewery. Always good to catch up with the loquacious kid and doings in the tech world, and with him personally. He's soon headed to DEF CON in Vegas to break some stuff. Tasty West Coast IPA... no hazies here.
Finally today, MLC gifted me a hacker find, Pliny For President! Matt knows I like dry hopped IPAs, especially DDHs, and he found and gave me a Pliny TDH. Whoa, Kala and I tasted and it is fun. Slightly hazier than Pliny (OG) but still golden delicious and oh-so hoppy. Thanks kid; limited releases are respected & especially appreciated on a 100° day in Peregrine.
