A Fire and a Brewery Up-Date


Well, the fire is out! 
Thank God....
I want to thank all of you for your kind thoughts and prayers.....
and a thank you to all the firefighters for their bravery and hard work...




 

It's a little eerie looking...
all of the hills around us are burnt....
but, no one was killed and no one lost their homes in our area....
We are very thankful and so glad it is over....


 


We were able to go to my son's new brewery, Saint Archer for a peak before the grand opening sometime in June... 
It was nice to get away from the smokey air...

We had a tour of it before the guest arrived...take a peak....


The Brewery






This is the serving room at Saint Archers Brewery....still waiting for the tables..



 







Here we are in front of the hotel...my husband and I, my daughter, my brother and my son, Mike...


 




This my daughter in-law and my son at the party...






 

My son-in-law and daughter..






These are my son's partners....
The one on the right is Paul Rodriguez...another pro skater. 
A lot of the ambassadors of the company are pro surfers and skaters....
It was fun to meet all of them and see how the beer is made...it's really good!





At this point, it's only available in San Diego....
  I will let you know when its available in other areas...
Thanks again for your sweet messages and emails.... 
I have some updates on projects to show you soon....

Thanks, Julie

    I'm so happy the community is safe and the fire is out. It may be a rough summer ahead. On another note....your family is so cute! I can't wait to visit SD and make the brewery a stop. Thank you for sharing the pictures. Have a wonderful week.

  8. Good to hear you made out well with the fires. Those last photos were scary.

  9. OMG...what a small world. My daughter went to a new brewery this past weekend but not sure it it was this one or not..located in Kearny Mesa area? My son also home brews and we are dear friends with the Shess family and I am certain your son is familiar with the Westcoaster and Mike Shess. I will send all my beer loving kids and their hundred friends over there for the grand opening. Good luck to him.

  11. Julie, so glad the fire's under control with the best results we could ask for under the circumstances. I'm sure you've got to be excited for your son's new venture...how great! What a terrific looking family. Fingers crossed for some more light rains so your beautiful hills can start to recover very soon. All the best!

  13. Julie,
    I'm so relieved the fire is out and that no one lost their home.
    Such a handsome family. Our son is a beer enthusiast and visits beer festivals all over the state. I'll have to share with him your son's brewery. Best of luck to him and his partners with their new brewery.

  14. We will order some of your son's beer! My husband drinks only beer!

    I tried to send you an email inviting you and your husband to come stay in our teeny guest house (you have seen it!); but it must have been in the height of the fire......and it bounced back!

    Just so you know; (I hope there is not another emergency) You are invited!

  20. Your fire was sooo frightening. I can't fathom what you were thinking being in the direct path of disaster. So glad you are SAFE. You and your family are gorgeous. (You need to write a post on how you stay so slim!) The brewery looks awesome. Love their logo. Much success to you and yours.
