The car in the garage...

 


How do you quantify a decade of hangin' out in a garage, using this car as a beer table, rings left in humour and love, arguments and make-ups, hockey pools, poker and much more. Kat's getting a new ride tomorrow and this Mazda 3 has been a faithful companion to the Polk family in more ways than just reliable transportation. It sits in the garage opposite the back door and its trunk has been the site of many an outdoor/indoor drinking session. It has left more than a fair share of drink rings on her, but I'll be damned if those memories aren't some of the finest I have. A lot of drunk conversations where we solved the world's problems, just to forget them when we woke up a little groggy the next morning. Friends and family who are no longer with us have rested a drink here, their memory is a blessing. Friends lost who meant so much and friends found who mean the same. It's been a helluva ride either way and it shall not be repeated.a classic for a classic as Muskoka Brewery Mad Tom joins us for the final night here in the garage. Big west coast citrus and pine, always welcome, always on point. Goodbye to this chapter of our journey, what a thing this was, I know I am failing to communicate this spot properly, but believe me when I say some of the best things and memories of my life happened with a beer being picked up from the back of this car. The picture can't do justice to the night, but we out here and we know...

Happy trails...

Cheers! 4.4/5
