RMC List - Picnic yesterday

[JOHN DAWSON]

Mike:
Thanks for tending the fire yesterday!
The burgers and brats were cooked to perfection.
Once again, thanks to Eric for bringing the grill and the clean-burning propane.
All in all, it looks like a good time was had by all.
(except for the folks in the three cars that got into an accident at the entrance to the park!)
Happy motoring
John Dawson

Thanks also to everybody who brought additional food and beverages and those that helped me putting my top up and down on my car due the the rain shower.  Thanks to Eric for the grill, the fuel and source of ignition.  I'm sure if a ranger dropped by the fire extinguisher was a good sign we were serious.

Add to that, I was a Salvation Army canteen driver & crew chief for their Emergency Disaster Services group for several years and the objective was food safety and to get people fed fast.  The crew chief is the driver and head cook.  Therefore, I become quite focused when doing that sort of work so I may have been a bit short with folks yesterday and I was not circulating very well to talk to people.  I could hear Eric behind me doing the social piece so I appreciate him doing that.
