The Wheels on the Bus went round and round - its probably a good thing considering that the bar was a free and open.

The shrimp and oysters started the evening out just right.


As everyone arrived, the bar got open and the visiting and conversation started to roll. Here, Mark Rubin and Kim Ingram exchange pleasantries.

And who is this? Minnie Hoormann, Cathy Pearl???
Howdeeeeee....
Just so glad to be here!!

Ken and Anna Hicks sidle up to the bar, but who is this? Bad Dude Poppy (Marvin) Scheflin


Tom and Babs Loftis. Tom is the one with a beer in his hands and Babs is sipping a glass of wine. Just in case there was a question in your mind.


Linda Breaux talks with Diane Kahre - Linda hates to have her picture taken.


Bro, on the other hand, loves his picture taken, gettin a little attention- there is a plate full of shrimp and oysters under that hand.

Nancy Campbell is getting around better after her foot operation. She puttered around like a little motor boat.

Brenda Lewis and good ole D.J. - Dinner was coming soon, so they got a head start on the dining room.

Melissa Linkenhoker, Tom Loftis, Mark Rubin and Robert Siegel talking of wild turkeys and morel mushrooms.

Lisa Ramsey and her daughter

 

It was election day and there were plenty of unsavory characters hanging out around the polling place.

Like Marv (Bad Dude) and Ruth Sheflin

Or Lisa Ramsey with her daughter above and below.

And there right in the election booth, pulling out his wallet to bribe the officials is Black Hat Rick Hobson with Barbara watching over.


Here are our beleagured election officials, Gary Rawson and Elaine Taubin - tasked with running a clean fair election.

Max Boyle and Kathy Henderson from Fresh Point Nashville was another couple of shady peeps eyeing the balloting.

Ozzy and Bart horsing around before dinner

The Chocolate fountain on the dessert buffet

Finally it was dinner time, and Mike Osborne and his crew of merry pirates laid on the spread. Spectacular.

  Barbequed Grilled Jumbo Shrimp - yea baby this was heaven on earth.


With only two left, you can tell that nobody liked the ribs -
can you say "snarf snarf" gone


Grilled BBQ chicken breasts - and peaking out from behind the chafer is a tray of grilled vegetables - yum!!

What barbeque would be complete without pulled shoulder - slow smoked and juicy tender.

Crank up the Bluegrass Band and Rock-a-Billy on down. They were supurb- smooth as Gentleman Jack with a toe tapping twang that was music to all our ears.
By the end of the evenings festivities, Gary Rawson announced the results of the election - Meet your new officers
New President

Anna Hicks
New Secretary
Kim Ingram
New Treasurer
Rick Kahre
New Sgnt-at-Arms
