A New Record
A few weeks back my friend "B" and I broke our previous barhopping record (21) when we managed to have a drink at 23 bars in a single day on Cinco de Mayo. This got us wondering just how far we could go if we planned it out really well.
This past weekend we may have found the answer. Heading out on the road towards rural north-central Missouri and southeastern Iowa last Friday morning, the journey and our destination of Ottumwa, Iowa (where we then set out on foot) ended up taking us to a grand total of THIRTY (30) bars on the first day of our trip! Other than a few places being closed that should have been open the whole thing went off without a hitch and we had a really great time. You can see it in our drunken faces at the moment we realized we'd just had our 30th bar drink:

Along the way I also passed the 300 mark in my own personal bar tally and got to make a connection with an ancestor at just about the same time.

Hope you enjoy it! And, this was just day ONE of our weekend, Saturday's report will be posted in a few days. :)
