Happy Anniversary # 30
It's hard to imagine that 30 years ago we thought that there would be a second Yakfest, let alone the notion of more than 60 events spanning 30 years. Impossible t imagine really. As we move into our fourth decade, the Old Man is 60 and all members are over 50. Is an AARP sponsorship next?
Misc
A normal temperature range for March: Temperature range had a high of 75° and a low dropping down to 25°. We made a few fires that complemented well the cool nights. The surroundings were busy with wildlife, bald eagles and herons were flying around. In Bocce-a-ganza Buck & Guy rubbed out the competition, defeating all comers. No jarts, the world's most deadly game, this time. On a grocery trip we rediscovered Andy’s Candies in Burgestown after a 10 year visit. We all hope the chirpy kitchen alarm is changed by the fall. Sheesh.
Chow
Shrimp cocktail and mushroom beer soup, Fried eggs with Breakfast Stout, NY Strip steaks with fried greens, Jerk chicken and pasta salad, Saturday Night Soup Night with Grilled cheese, French toast, Giant chocolate chip cookie from Pam and cake, Ma Conn’s cookies, White Chicken Chili, Wedding Soup with croutons, Smokies from K&K, Cheeseburgers (No chips. No Pepsi.), fresh pineapple and more.
We ate a few meals out again: at Cole's Pub and Sunday breakfast once again at Janoski’s Farm.
