Here we go with the January 2014 group of pictures culled from a few of the web and Facebook sites that we all like. I really enjoy the sunlight, shadows and reflections in some of these pictures. Truly some spectacular settings. My favorite (besides anything Michael George shoots) is the top picture from Western Bitters News titled “How about these colors!” Thanks to Cal49er for these spectacular whiskies.

The 49’er Historical Bottle Club – That’s my club, we had out first meeting of the year last night. One of things our club does to keep up attendance is a raffle at every meeting with 5-8 prizes. The first pick winner gets to pick 1 out of a selection of three bottles. Then there are 3-5 other bottles that are all raffled off one by one with the 2nd winner picking first among that group and so on until they are gone.
