Dinner
Back Forty Beer Co. – New Packaging
The guys over at Back Forty Beer Co. – Gadsden’s newish Craft Brewery went through a redesign of their packaging.
The are launching two new beers, Freckle Belly IPA and Kudzu Porter so they went ahead and redesigned the whole shootin’ match.
Mother Cartons, labels, six packs.
They needed some photos so I stopped by after work and shot some photos for them.
I’m reasonably pleased with the photos but I don’t love the highlights. They are servicable, but I’m going to continue to work with them until we get soem that I love.
It’s been a while since I have shot product, but I really like the technical aspect of it. I could imagine a really fun job shooting bike and beer product photos, letting my imagination run wild and getting to play with some of my favorite toys.

Big Solo Ride on the Trail
I knew I was going to have to put in a big effort if I was going to get caught up with the Festive 500. I wanted to try and get the most hassle-free miles I could. I also wanted to try and get further into Georgia than I had in the past. I was successful on both counts with only a small bit of drama. After tackling a few projects at the house I headed over to Jacksonville to ride the Chief Ladiga Trail. If I was going on a solo ride- I needed some flat roads to be efficient. I left and made it past Cedartown, Ga. and started riding to Rockmart. All of a sudden the trail became very rolly and windy and I couldn’t keep up my speed because of speed sapping hills and turns. I crested a hill near a Garbage dump of all places( with vultures circling nearby it felt rather Faulknerian) rolled to the bottom and began my trip back.
When I made it back to my car I realized I needed a few more miles before I hit my 160K goal and kept on the trail to Weaver. I turned around AGAIN and went to may car, in the diminishing light I realized I needed a few more K and road to Germania Springs where I 180-ed and made my way back into the darkness to my car. It was a long day, but rather fulfilling to be able to bust out 101 miles without too much effort.
Needless to say my legs were completely shelled the next day.
