Labor day is celebrated at the first Monday each Sept, announcing officially
the end of the summer season. At least, this is what I believe?
We had a playful time with our grandkids Jacob & Luke, who spend
Friday and Sunday night at our house.
Friday night we played Russian Rummy with Windy and Brian and finally
I was able to win one after losing in that game the past 4 to 6 Months.
Saturday late afternoon Windy and Brian came to pick up the boys
and they brought some sushi with them, which we enjoyed tremendously.
Gina & Daniel came over Sunday afternoon and brought a nice piece
of flank steak with them. Marinated and grilled, together with some
pork chops and Brats from the swiss butchershop in Herman,
fresh cole slaw and baked potatoes complimented the traditional
labor day cookout dinner. It was delicious!
Gina, Daniel, Windy, Brian, Donna, myself and the kids enjoyed
the food and of course a few to many cocktails. We all watched
the Atlanta Nascar race. Like I said, to many rum and cokes to
remember who won?
Gina and Daniel left a bit early, because Daniel did not feel 100%.
I just leave it at that.
Monday, Labor Day itself, I called for tee time at the Berry Hill Country Club
for 8 people at 1:00 PM for all of us plus our friends Eric & Karla.
Windy and Brian could not find a babysitter and had to stay at home.
That left Donna and I playing a twosome in front of Gina, Karla, Daniel and Eric.
It was perfect weather and we had a ball. The only mistake was
that I actually lost to Donna, and I still hear about it.
I tried to find a legitimate excuse for this without success.
Donna was just plain better and even surprised herself, because it was
only like her 4th time playing golf this year. Being hangover and
having a 6-pack of bud light in the cooler did not helped to improve my game.
That night we went to bed early, tired but satisfied and happy
after a joyful weekend with family and friends.
