Club Picnic 2011

Our annual club picnic was held on Saturday, June 25th at Teresa's house. We had a wonderful time and Teresa (at left below) was a most gracious hostess, with Vallery doing an outstanding job of organizing. The untiring efforts of both of them certainly assured a successful event. As you can see (below center) there were lots of smiles going 'round, and (below right) Erik was his usual eloquent self.

One part of the festivity was a Toast & Roast. Chris Quinn, our departing club President was the target of the first, much to the amusement of all. To his credit, he had at least as many Toasts as Roasts. Yours truly (me) was on the receiving end of the other. It was all in good fun. The accolades sent my way were rewarding and produced some 'warm and fuzzy' moments for me. I certainly appreciated the comments and the 'gold star' award I received for the 'Web Page Hall of Fame'. My thanks go out to everyone with a short bit of advice I've read many times in the last few months: "do what you love to do and you'll never work a day in your life". I'm just havin' FUN!

s'nuff fer now.
