119. The Rum Diary: Volume I

Dear Diary, I'm not all bad, but I am a faithful sinner. I remain loyal to my wife, bourbon whiskey; my lover, rye whiskey; and my dear friend, spiced rum. I love them all dearly, but only one is as sweet as sugarcane molasses. The first volume of The Rum Diary. Including a blizzardy trip from Winchester, Virginia to Manteo, North Cackalacky, January 21, 2022. Dedicated to Brian Lipscomb and Hunter S. Thompson, author of, "The Rum Diary." Special thanks to Outer Banks Distilling; including Scott Smith, the Matt Pack, and the entire Kill Devil Crew. Additional thanks to the Elizabethan Inn, for giving us a place to rest our heads.
