My attempt to make it to my 10 acres in Terlingua Ranch and make a go of living on it. From the start it hasn't gone good at all, but I'm hopeful things will turn around!

St. Patrick's Day @ the Legion
Just to let the locals that have expressed interest in attending one of the parties at the Legion. There will be a St. Patrick's Day party starting at 6:00 PM Saturday the 17th. It will be a non mandatory Pot Luck feed to start it off. If you want to bring something then do and if not then don't. Hopefully there will be enough food for all that show up. This was another one of Julianne's ideas so blame it on her. I believe her and Nick will be providing entertainment again.
Boy howdy I remember some pot lucks I went to. So much grub there weren't no room for beer. Make ya walk a straight line if'n ya know what I'm talk'n bout. Now if ya have one them pot lucks at your place, along with enough lumber to keep them "pot luckers" busy, you move in your "da house" in no time. Food for thought.
Hope you get good pictures of the party....share!!!! Did you hear about the big drug bust???? http://bigbendinquirer.blogspot.com/2012/03/drug-bust-141-pounds-of-caffeine-seized.html

TnT, There is usually way more good food there than can be eaten and some times we take extra food home for another meal.
ReplyDeleteBB, if I did that I'd have to supply all the beer, booze or both. I'd rather not have a crooked little house. (If you know what I mean)
Wish it was closer or I would attend. You guys have so much fun in the desert!
ReplyDeleteHeard on the weather channel that you got a good thunderstorm out your way. Hope it was beneficial.
A break for the worker - sounds good :)
ReplyDeleteI have to give the credit for this idea to Marian.
ReplyDeleteMsB, there were considerably less people there than were expected and Just Me didn't show up so only music was what little Nick played and sang.
ReplyDeleteDani, we did have fun throwing knives and tomahawks again.
Just Me, what happened to you?
