Our friends Katherine and Dennis bid on and won a smoked Tri-Tip beef dinner at their grandsons' school auction. The dinner was more than enough for the dozen or so guests that gathered in the front yard at their farm late this afternoon. I believe that the chef furnished the meat and potatoes while Kay fixed the salad, sides, and appetizers. All of it was very good, but as usual at this sort of thing, the visiting was even better.
One of the couple are a pair we only see once every couple of years, usually at something like this. His father was my father's contemporary and we were good friends with many of his family back in the Carico Hills days. One couple was new to us, but the other couples were also church family friends. Dennis and Kay's son and daughter were also there, along with their two young grandsons. It was a good group of folks.
But, it's a bit of a long trip from here to their farm - almost a hundred miles - so it made for a long day. Time for bed!
