No Burn? No Problem

Anjali came to the Cookout wearing the cool t-shirt she made at the Dwight Childrens' Festival at the Library. Several of our families went to this, and the kids had a blast. For $2, you really could not go wrong!

We are under an Extreme Fire Warning right now, with a No Burn Order in place, so there was no bonfire at the Cookout. That didn't put a damper on the fun, though.  After we munched on hotdogs, stuffed on veggies and dip and plunged into the fruit platter, the watermelon came out.


And so did Emilie!  She comes on Tuesdays to provide our guests with massages, but her talents go way past that. Emilie is a belly-dancer, and she came to the Cookout tonight to show off some of the numbers she is developing for her one-woman show. This show will be going to several of the area Seniors' Residences later this summer and next winter, and we predict it is going to be very entertaining for them.  It certainly entertained all of us!

Brian, Dave and Mike had the Potato Cannon very finely tuned. Some of our guests had never seen one before. They got up close and personal to the action.

The seed spitting was hotly contested.  Congrats to Gennadiy for letting his grand-daughter drag him up to the start line, and for giving it his best.  He claims that he has never participated in this before, but we're not sure... he demonstrated beautiful form, and sent the seed 19'7"
