A wonderful Labor Day weekend

We had a great Labor Day weekend! The weather was fabulous and the weekend was four days long for us!

We took Friday off work and had a leisurely drive to camp. I wish every week was like this! Traffic was great.

Saturday was a nice mix of meetings, getting together with friends, and an excursions out. Things started out with a members meeting confirming that camp will be open next year (woo hoo!) with a bit of droning on about exceptionally unimportant things (IMHO). What can you do, I suppose... We snuck off for a bit for a hike and got some great photos. We got back in time to enjoy Ray's champagne party -- 37 bottles consumed!! It is amazing anyone was left standing :) Dinner with Paul and Deb -- yummy in my opinion, though we cooked it and are therefore biased -- and the dance afterward ended the night on a positive note.

Sunday was the 25th Spaghetto in the Ghetto. We were busy from 9 am to about 4:30 pm. It was so worth it!!!! The turn-out was great and we couldn't have asked for better weather. We're crossing our fingers that we got some good shots for the article we are writing for TNS... We took about 250 photos and are picking from the pool taken by Steve and Garry, too. We finished off the night with a lovely dinner at Todd and Carolyn's. What more could we ask for?!


Monday was the perfect end to the weekend with a nice group breakfast and a sunny drive home. Mattie-dini escaped from the barn. Hmm... How do you cat proof a building that large? We're trying! But at least he was alive and well.

Now we're off for a short 4-day week. Hope it flies by quickly!

By the way, this is our first posting. We aren't prepared enough to have photos or videos, but hope to be better next time. Let us know what you think -- is this totally boring?!
