Gary wore the chef hat tonight. He was in charge of the prime rib. Evelyn prepared the cole slaw. It was a big hit with several requests for the recipe.
We slowly and leisurely prepared the tables and the outdoor living space during the day.
We had a great time visiting with everyone. It is a great mix of people, with ages ranging from the newly retired and nearly retired (ages 56) to retired for many years (age 80/81) . Two couples and one widow lady live here year around; the rest of us leave in spring and return in fall.
