Unexpected Advice

Hello dear friends,

I spent some time in Milwaukee on Saturday. We visited the historic Pabst Brewery and took a tour of a few of the original buildings. Whatever your current feelings are about Pabst Blue Ribbon beer, it was a major player in the Milwaukee beer industry.

The architecture is amazing - these castle-like buildings span several blocks in the city. If you saw them in a forest, you'd think you were in a fairy tale!

As part of the tour, we visited the guest center tavern and had a pint of PBR. There were lots of quotes on the wall (in German) and one translated as follows:

Eat what is well done

Drink what is clear

Speak what is true

Love what is rare

Another wall said:

Do as the sundial, count only the bright cheerful hours.

Interesting and unexpected advice from a German beer maker!

I hope that you had a wonderful weekend, wherever you were.

Please join me on your mat.

Love,
