Looking forward to Happy Hour August 27, 2010

Mark & Linda Granger and Duane Allen are going to be in town this coming Friday. That's almost too much fun to have at once. We shall endeavor to persevere! REALLY looking forward to it.

The weather report is weird for the week. The coolest evening of the summer are coming up. Evening lows in the low 60's, 50's and high 40's? Much cooler days too. High Friday of 77 and 81 for Saturday. You never know this far out what's going to happen. I think I'll drag out the solar cover and see if I can get the pool heater to fire up just in case they get it right for a change.

Don't miss this one if you can help it.

I wrote a nice long report and lost it to cyber space
















HH August 21, 2010. Here's the short of it lots of good food and folks. Highlight for me. Isabel learned to swim.










Here's a few pics to view.










No PowerBall numbers at all this week.

This Friday and last

First ... tonight looks warm with some clouds. We will be here, so come on over.

Second ... last weeks Happy Hour was lots of fun with good folks and quite a feast. They came in two phases. Gabby, Nancy and Don came by first. Nancy brought that bean and ground beef slightly sweet concoction that I love. It went great with the baked turkey breast sandwiches Beth made.

Second came B & B Thomson and their neighbor Bonnie. Bonnie brought a marvelous salad with chicken & curry. The Thomson's brought grapes encrusted with cheese and nuts. We did a lot of vacation talk. Previous and future. I love that. I enjoyed my self completely.

We hope to see you tonight!

Hope to see you tonight 8/13/10!

Looks good for Friday from this Wednesday point of view.

For now I'd say we are on. Check back closer to Friday to see what the weather is doing.


Sorry to the folks who stopped by last week. Check the blog or call to be sure.

We had two correct! That's a first. I must be getting better at this!

Didn't win anything but we're getting closer.

HAPPY HOUR UNLIKELY AT THE POOLSIDE

This coming Friday, August 6th. More on that later once things have firmed up.

July 30th Happy Hour report

Interesting night with lots of comings and goings. It never seemed to get crowded but we had 23 or 24 visitors including several first timers.
Computer Don may have been the first to arrive. Several guests said "Hey I know that guy. He fixed my computer." I think he may have picked up a new client while he was here BTW.
I'm not sure who arrived first out of the Moore clan but Nick was here for HH the first time this season. Brien, Terry and Rachael came early and left early. Maybe we'll see them this Sunday?
Mary Paulmier came by in the hopes of seeing Amie. We called Amie to see if she was on her way. She was ... going to some alternate Happy Hour!
Tim C was here and his daughter Tiffany was a first timer this night. This round of school will be over soon for her, so congrats!
Neighbor Dave and Kim stopped by for the first time too. I think they had a good time. They might bring some friends of theirs next time who are friends of our too. We hope they do.
Harry brought his devilish box of eclairs. I learned my lesson from last time. Just have one.
There were all sorts of great treats. Don? Isabel and Nancy made me a birthday cake that was wonderful. Michelle, Marty and Reece brought a well like berry desert. Michelle and Marty were in a funny (ha ha) mood and cracked me up several times.
Beth and Nancy both made some tasty pasta dishes which I have enjoyed several time this weekend. Thanks!
Don and Chris were here. I think they are coming back Sunday for some swim and boccie.
Alan and Bonnie were here. I think Bonnie is off to Michigan and Alan is working on a cool project in Granville. He had to leave early for a project meeting.
The Hupps were heading out early in the morning for a meeting with Alisha's boyfriend's (Greg) folks. Greg has been to a few Happy Hours having brought some great home brewed beer his last visit. We hope to see Greg, Alisha and the rest of the family too for that matter, again this year.
I'll review later to see if any addition guests should be included in the HH7-30-10 report & post the results of the PowerBall drawing (I'm hoping for at least 1 number this time round). I'm going to go mow the grass before it get too hot.
I'm pretty sure there will be NO HAPPY HOUR POOLSIDE FOR AUGUST 6th. I'll verify and post updates on that too. WOW! August already...slow down a bit please.

Pictures from July 23 Happy Hour







A little late with these pictures but much better than the July 30th HH where I took -0- pictures.
