So last week I invited Craig to come down and have a BBQ at the homestead.  Yesterday, I thought to myself I really should invite Wayne also.  After all he does live in the valley so I called and no answer.  Then I thought I really should invite Wendy and Rob.  So I called and invited them, and Dad and Julie.  I fully expected everyone to already have plans, and say no.  But everyone to my surprise said yes and showed up.  I was very worried about food I only had three racks of ribs, but it all worked out. It also seemed that everyone had fun and did not go home hungry.  It did put my framing the downstairs backwards a little bit but it was well worth it.
