Weekend Wrap-up

Much of the weekend was taken up with proposal work, but we did manage to get away for the afternoon on Saturday and take a hike up to Raven Rocks on the West Virginia border. The weather was a little brisk, and the denuded trees gave us the benefit of great vistas throughout the hike, at the expense of ankle chaos in the slippery leaves all over the trail.

We stopped in Purcellville to try out a couple new breweries. The first, Adroit Theory, was a nanobrewery that had a rapidly rotating inventory of beers you drink like an adult rather than a college student. We had heard that their beers were "weird", but found them to be pretty good across the board.

After those samples, we went to Belly Love Brewery down the road for a shared flight and some pork belly tacos. The beers were good, and more normal fare, while the tacos were forgettable and overcharred. We closed out the evening at an ice cream shop across the street, which featured the warmest and coziest table area of any ice cream shop, making it the perfect place to warm up while eating cold stuff.

How was your weekend?
