Men, Music and Moonshine..

Soo, whew, been straightening the yard after the party, found a metal slide from one of the band members that must have rolled off our makeshift stage and a blue guitar pick.  All in all, it was a pretty easy cleanup this time.  I should have had one big trashcan for bottles and cans, but it really worked out well because I did grab a few of things to use for some craft items.  : )..  Ha!

We had a fairly good turnout, and once again, everyone was gone fairly early.  Our parties in the past have lingered on until close to 2am, but this one was over by 11:30pm.  We still have a pan full of uncooked kabobs, which will be our dinner tonight.  The beef and pork really turned out well, while the chicken's teriyake sauce had kind of a sticky, strange taste.  They were still good, but definitely different.  Lol.

Alrighty.  Here are a few party pictures.

 Dutch decided to get some fancy cheeses,

Gargonzola, Goat cheese, Fontina, a Goat Fontina,

and a couple other choices.  They were a hit once people got started on them.

 The original three members of Famous Seamus

and the Travelbongs, Wayne, Brian and David.

one of my faves, "Low Rider".

 Thursday is Dutch's birthday, and he had told one

of my friends that he would love a cake with 55 candles

on it.  Lol.  I would have gotten a picture with them all burning,

but we didnt want to burn the house down.

 I was cake shopping when Dutch called and said some of our

friends were going to bring him a bday cake.  Great timing!  Lol.

I had started my afternoon running a few errands, and that was my

last stop.  I was trying to pick one out right when he called.

 The only thing that I don't like about my iphone, it takes

horrible night pictures when I use the flash.

That's the original three band members with Lonnie

from the Fall Down Drunks Bluegrass band who are good

friends with our band.  : ).. 

I wish Lonnie's brother AJ had been

able to be there, AJ has this crazy bass guitar, which is a picture from

another one of their previous shows.  It may look rough, but it has such
a great sound.  : )..  Click here if you would like to hear it.

 Dutch strung my garland lights and we bought some

more lights for the back porch.  Definitely had enough lights

when it was all together.

 The band's moonshine.  Legal Apple Pie

moonshine.  I'll leave that for them.

 The story behind the moonshine.

Famous Seamus and my co-worker's daughter, Grace's

chalk art on our deck.  I'm thinking they had fun, lol,

they played really well together.  Seamus is two days

younger than our oldest pup, Emmy, but he is smart as a whip!

He's two years and seven months old and already talking in

complete sentences which are clearly understood, and he knows

his colors and can count to 12 already.  He came in and walked up to

Grace and told her, "Hold my hand!"  Lol.  One of our friends

said he already likes older women.  : )..

All in all, it was another great party.  Whew.  Glad it's over though.

Until next time.
