Last week I flew from Phoenix to Charlotte NC to drive a car back. Crazy long road trip, filled with many many podcasts and plenty of music from pandora. Adventures ensued. I piled on some serious comfort food in Asheville NC before making my way across the country, through the Great Smoky Mountains and onward to Memphis. I found myself a nice craft beer bar not far from my hotel, and Ubered my way there and back, the way a responsible beer lover does. The Flying Saucer staff were all exceptional and educated on their beers, plus fun to interact with. I enjoyed a few local tasty beers, and did my best to stick with southern beers I can’t find at home.  Made some good new friends, and had an awesome night, before crashing out to continue my adventure homeward bound.  I piled on the miles the following day and didn’t arrive in Amarillo, Texas until much too late to grab a beer, but I did at least find myself a proper Texas shaped waffle the morning after to prep myself for the last stretch bringing me home.
