Car Shows and Peacocks

Take a good look at the above two pictures.  Do you get it?  Each species is fanning feathers trying to attract admiration and accolades. 

Humans are no different than other animals on this planet.  We have instincts whether we love them or loathe them.

The above picture was taken today at a car show in Petaluma, California.  Yes, it was directly across the street from the now world famous Lagunitas Brewery.  Believe it or not, there are other breweries that are just as worthy of attention like the 101 North Brewery, who actually hosted the car show today.  I also have to point out the dilapidated windmill sign for the Green Mill Inn which has been closed down for about 15 years now.  I have many memories with the Green Mill (aka Mean Swill) including business meetings and wedding receptions.  The place was old school.  If both owners would still be alive and able to manage the place, I'm sure they would now be targeted by Hipsters and other Yuppies coming up from Marin, SF, and other South Bay Scum driving BMW's wanting that Green Mill experience complete with Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer and cheese curds.

I'm off on a tangent.  Sorry.  I'll reel it back.  This is about a car show and Petaluma. 

I have to give the Petaluma beer industry one thing no matter which brewery is your favorite.  They all support the community.  Cheers.
