BACONCAMP

So I've spent the past week here in Texas. First down in Austin for SXSW Music Festival where I consumed Mexican Food, Burgers and a little bit of BBQ. Then I headed up to Plano for a few days of seeing the neighborhood I grew up in. During my time here in Texas, I consumed a good amount of pork via brisket, ribs, sausage, breakfast burritos and of course bacon.

Why am I telling you all of this you ask? Well, at the same time I was enjoying myself here in the south, there was even more fun happening in San Francisco at BaconCamp! Why did I not know about this? Doesn't everyone know that my future is not in the music business, but it is in BACON!

I'm not sure who the genius is behind the event, but kudos to them (I will be attending next year for sure).
