Week 16: Happy Birthday Sam

An enjoyable weekend of drinking and eating has been successfully completed. Although Sam suspected that his wife, Alex, was planning something, he wasn't prepared for the elaborate party she had put together.


A few of the party-goers arrived at the campsite Friday (including us) to help set up but the majority of people came the next day. Everybody arrived around noon on Saturday and crowded into the marquee ready to scream "Surprise" when Sam and Alex rolled in at one.

Finally, with that out of the way, we could resume drinking (proudly started at 9am) and dive into lunch (a plentiful potluck feast). The afternoon progressed with a rotation of eating, drinking, napping, and volleying (gotta keep practicing so we're in form for next weekend's tourny).


The party was also a trial run for the Earthwize energy trailer. Overall, it was successful run and we're getting better throwing it up and bringing it down.


Back at Earthworm, work week helpers arrived on Saturday and have been getting on quite well attacking a variety of jobs around the property. And now that I'm done typing this, I will go join in (I'm thinking gathering wood will be a good Monday morning job).

kastro!
I missed you last night at my family bbq. Without Webb to start the brawl and you to bail us out, i figured maybe this year we'll just stay on the porch with the cooler.
