I Was Briefly Incarcerated...

... at the (old) US Disciplinary Barracks today.  But it was a voluntary sort of incarceration.  Note:


The 12th Brick Grille is a bar/sandwich shop which is literally within the walls of the military prison.  The 12th Brick gets its name from the fact the US Military Prison used to have a brick factory on the premises, with military convicts providing the labor.  Every 12th brick was stamped "USMP"... thus the name.  They serve great beer there, too.  I had a Boulevard Pale Ale and SN1 had a Boulevard Wheat.

Good stuff, Maynard.

  1. I knew you'd end up in jail - after all - it is Leavenworth. Very cool building - how was the inside?

  2. The inside is very modern... everythang's been renovated to current standards. The place looks new, but the art on the walls is all old B&W photos of the old prison... from the early 1900's. Those were interesting!

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
