Are you in the Lake Geneva area and enjoy Next Door Pub? Planning to come to the area with an eye to stopping by the Pub for some refreshments? Now is a good time to either stop by the Pub in Lake Geneva, the new Pub location in Como, or their website and pick up a $50 gift card and receive a $15 gift card as a bonus.
They do this for the holidays and also to kick off the Summer, so even if it is for your own use, why not? If someone you know has an upcoming B-day, Anniversary, or even for Father's Day, it's a great way to give and also receive (yup, give the $50 and keep the $15 for yourself!). It's all good and I just got a text from them giving us permission! :D

Were you there?
I wonder if it has to be scientific papers or if my RPG books, gaming supplements, and campaign settings notes count as worthy clutter. :D

"Homage to Dungeons and Dragons"
Artist: Chris Scharpf
"Chris is a long time local resident of Lake Geneva and specializes in detailed murals and has an avid interest in the unique history of the area. This concept will surprise and satisfy the growing number of people that visit Lake Geneva as the birthplace of world renown Dungeons & Dragons gaming system. Thousands flock to locally held gaming conferences, like GaryCon. Chris Scharpf believes a downtown tribute painting will be a perfect fit, and will motivate some to explore downtown on a break from the gaming tables and check it out along with the new Geneva Lake Museum exhibit"
Anyone know the location where this will be?

Saw this floating around a few places and figured I'd help spread the word . . .
In case some folks who come to my Timeline do not know, with the advent of the lockdown four years ago, I started streaming. I picked up an HD camera and a Yeti microphone, downloaded OBS free software for recording, set up a Twitch channel (on which I record) and a YouTube channel (where I upload the videos after recording). Here's how they look (linked below in comments) after four years and nearly 500 shows.
Keep in mind, I do this as a fun sideline and only spend an hour a week, streaming live for about ten minutes, adding the video to YouTube, then sharing the YouTube link on all my social media avenues. During the lockdown I did a show each and every day. The next year, I did a couple of shows a week. Nowadays, I just do the one show each Monday morning.
Others do a more professional job than I do, editing their raw footage and putting together the footage with effects, but I don't want another job, just an extra outlet for my hobby gaming thoughts and opinions. Hopefully, I give folks some insight into gaming practices going back to the early 1970s including the advent of D&D in 1974 and beyond. I hope you find my videos useful and enjoyable!
