The Labor Day weekend bash is in full swing now and the pig is starting to smell good. John and Gail are our designated 'pig watchers' for the night and are taking the task quite seriously keeping the fire hot and making a lot of hot coals to be shoveled up under the pig to smoke it as they cool - they'll be up all night doing it, too.
Our first time guests Mark and Susan are fitting in with the rest of the crowd and Mark forgot to put on pants to go to the store until the Mrs., reminded him and Susan has been giving him hell - in a good way- about it for hours now. The other newcomers brought their teenager with them and took a bit longer to get in the swing of things but my 18-year-old granddaughter took charge of their 17-year-old son and when his wide-eyed shock wore off that girl would even talk to him, much less a naked teenage girl close to his own age he relaxed and has been in the pool playing with the other youngsters (the under thirty crowd).
Tonight's pot luck included practically every kind of dessert imaginable so it was a quick run to the deli for meats and cheeses but breakfast promises to be wonderful.
Seamus and Angus along with Mac Duff have already set the ground rules ... everybody has to play with them before they get in the pool or hot tub and the more people that go to the river the more Seamus and Angus like them - Mac Duff doesn't do the river (the snotty little bastard that he is).
People are still arriving and will be for several more hours and then again around midday tomorrow. Looks to be the best weekend party ever ... thus far.
