Grillin’ at Golden View

Just a quick post to mention my first cookout of the summer.  What fun!  The weather was still stunning and the company was great.   AND, I got to show off Dora again.  I love giving the tour.

In attendance, were 4 humans and 5 dogs.  You’ll notice my Misty-Moo decided not to take part in the picture taking portion of the evening, so I decided to post a photo of her taken down in Homer last summer.

On the menu was:  BBQ chicken,  bell pepper shish ka bobs marinated with olive oil infused with garlic and thyme, a salad of fresh baby greens and summer vegetables, a fresh fruit salad in a watermelon bowl, Hawaiian rolls, and cookies.  What a spread!  Perhaps one of the guests will send in photos of the dishes.  It was definitely a group effort as it was sort of pot luck affair.

Flower was the star of the evening.  An 11 yr old “pet quality” Shelty named after the skunk in Bambi.  She has stolen yet another heart…mine.  Try as I did, I couldn’t talk Becky and Sasha into letting me have her.

I’ll be heading out on my canoe trip on the Swanson Lake Canoe Trails on the Kenai tomorrow morning, so won’t be able to post until my return on Friday.  Since all good things must come things must come to an end, the weather has decided to turn from sun to rain, but remember, there is no such thing as bad weather-just bad clothes, so we proceed as planned.

Stay tuned.
