I wasn’t going to post these images, but they have some historical significance. It turns out that the Olympia Brewing Company, located in Tumwater, Washington, is no more. The company, which was founded in 1896 was closed down in 2003. That means that when we do finally go back to Washington to re-explore our old haunts, we won't be able to repeat this experience.

Maybe these photographs will make us rich and famous someday! (Don’t worry, we’re not holding our breath.)
