Ramble
On!
A couple of West Coast guys. A journey that started in 2018. Before the Camp Fire. Before a pandemic. Before numerous other trials and tribulations. With every twist and turn, we are proud to say that we never backed down. Never gave up. Thank you for thinking of us, drinking from us, and rambling with us. RAMBLE ON!
