While the event started with some drizzle, so the bbq was held in the big Rec Barn, the weather cleared so that we were able to head to the beach for a bonfire, watermelon, s'mores, and of course, the popcorn kernel spitting contest.
This was new territory to our guest, Bart, visiting us from Orleans, France. He showed a wonderful natural aptitude!
He and his wife Anne were also introduced to their first s'mores -- which will now, we are sure, become part of Orleans cultural cuisine.
Not to be outdone by Dave and Brian's potato cannons, John brought his with him this week, from Ottawa. This was a 'serious' potato cannon -- and it not only fired a massive potato, it managed to hurl it halfway to the Point! Ah.... boys, and their toys...
Taffy's looking particularly stoic!
