where the American Nazi Party, whose founder, George Lincoln Rockwell, was shot to death at the Dominion Hills Centre on Aug. 25, 1967.
But in better news...they are rebuilding the Powhattan springs skate park across the street
The Powhatan Springs Skate Park ...hopefully opening in spring 2019
Not sure why they had to tear down the old one...but the new one looks killer

sweetcell:
national brand beers i've been enjoying recently:
- Lagunitas: Mozango: probably the best fruited IPA i've ever had (ok, that's not the highest praise i can give a beer since i'm generally pretty meh on fruit in my IPAs). noze is amazing. mosaic hops already bring the mango, so adding actual fruit turns it up to 11. at $5/bomber i will be stocking up on my next grocery shopping trip.
- Rogue: Dead'n'Dead: dead guy ale aged in dead guy whiskey barrels. frikken fantastic. big malt bomb with a really nice whiskey heat finish. decently priced too, 8 or 9 bucks/bomber. costco on market st NE supposedly has some in stock.
national brand beer that i drain-poured after two sips:
- Rogue: Combat Wombat. some sour IPAs are really good and some are merely OK, but this was the first one that i've had that was downright undrinkable. i wonder if i got a bad bottle, since reviews on BA seem to be quite positive. YMMV?
