Wednesday Recap - Coolest. Day. Ever.

So Wednesday was a GREAT day.  Not only did we spend it with Lynette and Brett, but we got to have dinner with Wil Wheaton.  No lie.

Breakfast was at Richard Walker's Pancake House - amazing.  And ODDLY enough, I happen to have worked with the guy that is one of the owners.  Worked on an SAP project with him...Richard Walker Jr.  He wasn't there, but what are the odds?

We then hung out and had beers, stole a mini fridge from the storage room next door and put it in our room, then had late apps and beers.

Then, and this is the coolest part of the day - no offense Lynette and Brett...but we had dinner with Wil Wheaton!!

He's a home brewer, works with Northern Brewer, super lovely and nice guy (as is his wife), and here were the super fun things about the meal.


  1. I shrewdly jockeyed for table position and was able to slyly secure Chris a seat next to Wil. Score one for Patty.
  2. Wil recognized Chris - he had just watched the Brewing TV cider episode.  Super fun, Chris was happy.
  3. Again...oddly...Wil and his wife know Chris's sister Amanda and her husband.  They are friends.  What are the odds!

Let me just reiterate - Wil Wheaton is a very lovely celebrity.  He's so down to earth, just really a dorky homebrewer like the rest of these guys, and really happy to take pictures with people that love him.   Score 1000 for Wil Wheaton.
