We both live in a small remote community. I stopped to get mail at our rural mailbox and he was doing the same. It's kind of ironic that we never see each other when we live in the same community and only two houses separate us. But this is remote enough that for the most part, your neighbor is out of eyesight.
Bill said he got out of the brewing business altogether. I asked what he was dong and his response was that he was mining and growing mushrooms.
So, I just thought I would let his mining friends know he is still alive and kicking here in remote Northern California.
