Salute to Summer

Summer is by far my favorite time of year and I am always sad to see it end. I was thrilled with yesterday's high of 85 degrees...I am going to soak up every last bit of warmth and sunshine before the cold comes. There are so many things I am going to miss about summer...

Fresh picked hydrangeas

Steamed Crabs and Old Bay

Picking Crabs

Watching Dixie enjoy the pool.

Grilling

Summer Birthdays

JCW's smoked brisket

Alfresco dinning and all the fixins

New trends...will Silly Bandz be around next Summer? What will the latest fad be next year?

Cheers to a great Summer!

Special thanks to everyone who included us in their get togethers and for hosting such outstanding gatherings .

    I must find those chips. Dixie is one good looking GSP. I hope your Fall has some fun for you.
