An elaboration

Credit goes to my brother-in-law, Aurel, for taking and assembling these panoramic photos.

Glass Bottom Brewery LLC went from here:

to here:

only with, as I have mentioned, the help and advice of many individuals who proved their willingness, beyond any doubt, to help our business start and undergo its process of development. I thought that listing them for posterity might be appropriate at this point. Hopefully they will pardon the use of full names and my unwillingness to put them in any order but the one where their names surge into my head.

and others I will likely have to edit in.

For your viewing pleasure, here are more panoramic photos that show the yard in its progression to a (nearly) current state of development. Any questions about this process can be answered by emailing this account, or feel free to show up at the yard when we are present (on 41 north of GB and south of Division St) so long as you remember to park inside the field, not in my landlord's private driveway.

May I just add that having something tangible, even if we have yet to work out the issue of having a sign (due to residential zoning of the leased hop yard), is wonderful for a fledgling business that so far has been fueled only on unfulfilled dreams. In the future the hop yard will progress to being a place of growing plants and grazing animals. I can't wait.

More pictures from Aurel to come.
