Still contemplating
Braving the nasty snow storm
To keep my brew day

Snow in Maryland
Others purchase milk
But I load up on brewskies
For the coming storm
Written by Captain Hops.
References: In Maryland when they call for snow, the populace freaks out and stocks up on milk and toilet paper. Grocery stores are an absolute mob scene. It’s important to have your priorities straight.

Solace
Faced with the deluge

And weather the storm
