Wonderful day . . .


We did it. Another exceptional Horeseshoe Tournament. We had the best weather yet and an excellent bunch of people about 48 in all. It's so easy to have a party when you don't have to do the cooking! We went from 1pm to 6pm. There were kids aged 6 months to 11 years old and Kiddo had a blast. I think I only saw him twice all afternoon. He was busy playing laser tag with the "boys" club. Too funny. Our clam fritter man showed up so we had that special treat and for desert M & M ice cream sandwiches. It's a good thing that everyone likes what I like because that's all we get for the party! The middle child beat her husband twice at horseshoes and did she ever play that up big time. You had to be here to appreciate the fun. Already looking ahead to next year and how I'm going to tweak the menu.

Grampa has been having a good time tidying up the basement so he has a more comfortable place to work on his planes. It really looks good. We went to the Sterling School today to fly and walk. There was another couple there; she walking the dog; he, driving golf balls. It all worked out well because the place is big enough for golf and control line practice. Just remembered. We had three little dogs at the party one Shidzu and two Yorkies. All very well behaved. I must admit I'm tired because we've already got the yard and house back in shape and packed away for next year. Won't have to cook for a while as we finish up the left overs. Not too much this year. So it'll be a good week of no cooking! That's a plus.
