A July snowball......


We had talked about having a cookout/party for all the people that had helped us on the garage. Sounded innocent enough..... by the way, this photo is of a garage warming present made by BJ Steinbach.



Peggy mentioned that all the people at Marquip (our work place)that are from India, have all had her or us to their homes at one time or another. Maybe we should include them all in this??? Sounded O.K.....



Ivan had knee surgury the day before, so he was on crutches and ice packs.... Turns out that with all the extra invites, last minute additions, etc, there were 52 people here for Saturday afternoon and evening!! Hence the snowball......



Jerry and I had each gotten a turkey in the spring season, so we deciced to cook them both. We had made some stainless cans for roasting them, the bird is under the can, charcoal around the bottom of the can. They took about 2.5 - 3 hours to get done. MMMMMMMMM, good........



Virgil Lord came to the shindig with Jerry and BJ.



Here are a few of the India women. They all seemed to have a good time.




Lot's of cars and some rode their bicycles from Prentice to the Ottertail!




The kids enjoyed the lawn.



The grownups enjoyed the food and conversation.



The little canvas awning covered the charcoal grill, where Scotty was busy cooking burgers, brats and hot dogs. Also cooked some slice potatos and onions on the grill.
One of the India folks broughts some marinated chicken that Scotty grilled, as well.



Roop, one of our India friends, did some of the turkey carving.



There were kids of ALL ages there on Saturday.....



The India crew brought their cricket bats. Here Lokesh takes a cut at a tennis ball.



This one got by Peg. Hee, heee.......



But she nailed this one!!



Oh, yeah......














That's enough for one night, I'll finish this another day....
I gotta go, Carlo
