Beer gardens, even if they're not a brewery, where kids can run around, are *packed* in the burbs.
11 Below on Spring Cypress in Spring TX follows the same model since they moved from their Bourgeois/Cutten location last year. The old Fortress brewery location is better set up for families/kids.They are usually doing a brisk business when I am there on random Fridays.

World class beer bar but you better know what you want before you order-or else you'l get "the look" or be completely ignored.
Dave Mason, May 10, 1946 – April 19, 2026 renowned English Singer-Songwriter and guitarist who first gained fame as a founding member of the rock band Traffic, Dead at 79
Over a career spanning six decades, he was a prolific solo artist and one of the most sought-after session musicians in Rock history, collaborating with legends like Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison, and Michael Jackson.
Mason's tenure with Traffic was disjointed. He was a founding member of the group, but left following the release of their debut album, Mr. Fantasy (1967), only to rejoin halfway through the sessions for their next album, Traffic (1968), after which he left again. Last Exit (1969), a compilation of odds and ends, features little material by Mason apart from his song "Just for You".
Traffic later re-formed without Mason, although he briefly began working with the band for a third time, touring with them in 1971 and playing on Welcome to the Canteen. In his brief spells with the group, Mason wrote alone; Steve Winwood later recalled, "We all [Winwood, Jim Capaldi and Chris Wood] tended to write together, but Mason would come in with a complete song that he was going to sing and tell us all what he expected us to play. No discussion, like we were his backing group"
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 for his work with Traffic.
According to recent reports and tributes on social media platforms and music forums, Mason passed away at the age of on April 21, 2026.
Prior to this, in late 2025, he had officially retired from touring due to ongoing heart health challenges, though he planned to continue recording.

You mean my girlfriend who cannot even back out of my driveway without running over the sprinkler heads in the yard. I just had to replace 2 last week. I’ve now put up little flags like they use for gas lines. Small chance that even works.

The Euston Tap: Dedicated cider bar with cask ales and draught beers, in a Victorian gatehouse with beer garden. More of a beer bar than pub..but a cool, unique place to have a beer.

re: 18 year old girl found dead wrapped in blankets under a bed on Carnival cruise ship

A 16-year-old has been indicted by a grand jury on murder and aggravated sexual abuse charges for allegedly killing his stepsister on a cruise ship last year.
The suspect, who is only identified by the initials T.H. because of his age, was indicted by a federal grand jury, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. The teenager was originally charged as a minor in February with the case under seal, but is now being prosecuted as an adult after a federal judge's ruling.
T.H. was aboard the Carnival Cruise Line's Horizon ship with his stepsister Anna Kepner in November 2025. While aboard the ship, prosecutors allege he sexually assaulted and intentionally killed Kepner.
The 18-year-old high school cheerleader from Titusville, Florida, was found dead while aboard the Carnival Horizon cruise ship. Law enforcement sources told multiple media outlets that Kepner's body was found by a housekeeper under the bed in her stateroom on the ship, which returned to Port Miami on Saturday, Nov. 8.
ABC News reported that Kepner died by asphyxiation resulting from a bar hold, a term for holding an arm across the neck. The media outlet also reported investigators found two bruises on the side of her neck.
“In his own words, he says he does not remember what happened,” Barbara told ABC News. “I believe, to him, that is his truth. He was an emotional mess. He couldn't even speak. He couldn't believe what had happened.”
Following Anna's death, the stepbrother was hospitalized for psychiatric observation after returning to Miami, before being released to stay with a family member, Barbara told ABC News.

Druid Focker. The YouTube videos were legit insane.
We went to the game. It was a thorough beatdown. I told my friend from Arizona that they should never have hired sweater vest Mackovic after he had imploded at Texas.
Christopher Reed North (January 26, 1951 - March 30, 2026) was an American musician. He was the founding keyboardist of the American progressive rock band Ambrosia. 1970 he formed the progressive rock band Ambrosia with David Pack, Joe Puerta and Burleigh Drummond. North was hired by Puerta after seeing him perform in a "dimly lit room" one night: "There was a coffin with speakers in it. And at the end of the room, Chris was there, playing the organ with a bottle of wine on the top, smoking a cigarette, and there was a girl massaging his shoulders as he played, so I go, 'We gotta get this guy in the band'". Fans of Ambrosia, we honor the legendary life and career of our dearest family member Christopher North, the "Hammond B3 King" whose sonic architecture defined a generation of progressive and soft rock. A founding member since 1970, he was a keyboard wizard who brought an unmatched intensity and emotional depth to every performance.
We will always remember "Northwind" for his fiery, "intense" stage presence—a legacy that began when he was first discovered playing in a dimly lit room, his organ topped with a bottle of wine. Even as he faced health challenges in recent years, including a brave and successful battle with throat cancer, his spirit remained tied to the music and the fans he loved.
Christopher North’s work did more than just fill airwaves; it created "aural landscapes" that balanced virtuosity with soulful, radio-friendly hooks. We celebrate a true craftsman of the classic rock era whose lush piano lines and soaring organ swells will remain timeless.
He was truly one of a kind, and loved dearly by his fans and bandmates.
RIP, Brother Chris, forever and ever in our hearts...
