Black Market StP

Took in Black Market StP barbecue with a bunch of my old neighbors. Great food, outside, with October snow keeping the beers cold. 🍻

Adrienne Peirce and I were honored to be recognized for 9 years as Founding Board Members of Minnestar. We finish our board service at the end of this year, along with Kevin Spreng, who wasn’t able to be there tonight. It’s been an honor to be part of this organization!
