MASTERS PARTY

Friday, April 12 – After spending the entire day enjoying the Masters, it was time to party!!! Paul's brother has a Masters party every year inviting about 50 family members, friends, and business associates. John (Paul's brother) and Ryan (his son) are in charge of the menu.

Prep time…John and Ryan.

This years specialty is Prime Rib, grilled veggie's, potatoes, and grilled chicken kabobs. Of course adult beverages are available to hydrate oneself after spending a day on the golf course.

We had a wonderful time meeting and talking with this group of friendly southerners. Marsha spent quite a bit of time talking to a couple from Italy. Her grandparents were from Italy and that's one of Marsha's most favorite places to visit.

We had a such a great time that before we knew it the clock struck 2:30 a.m. WOW! Staying up with the young adults is tough. Sure glad we're staying around the house on Saturday rather than going to the Masters. John, Karen and another couple are going to watch the golf. We'll hang around the house, relax and do some cleaning up of things from last night's party.

We hit the road for Ohio early Sunday morning. It's taking us two days to drive there from Augusta, GA.

Thanks so much John and Karen for a fabulous two weeks. You can bet that we will be back.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y'all back real soon. Have a great day!

    Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin.
    Could have been three or four six-packs,
    I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in,
    My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die,
    Tell me, me oh me oh my,
    Wasn't that a party?

  3. I'm impressed that you stayed up until 2:30am!! Wow! I cannot remember the last time I did that! I don't even make it to midnight on New Year's Eve.

    That dinner menu sure sounded good - Prime Rib etc.!

  4. When they throw a party, they definitely throw a party. It would take me a long time to recover. Glad you're safe in Ohio.

  9. Party animals yes, and 2:30am I only see that time of the night after a few hours sleep. Sure looks like a fun time and lotsa great food.
    Travel safe, the weather is slowly warming up for you.

  10. Prime Rib! I've got to talk to my family. They serve burgers and hot dogs.

    Staying up to 2:30? Having a party reason is one thing. My bedtime now is between 2:30 and 3 am when I wake Len up to take over the gate guard duties. Thinking your reason is better.

  11. Now, that's a party!!! Glad you had such a great time at the Masters. I think I said my son was there as he is every year, but he wasn't. He was up in New York proposing to the girl of his dreams. I think that's the only thing that could have trumped the Masters for him. :)
