Move over, Sara, I am not happy about this news either. Slick and I have been emailing back and forth and I fully respect and understand her decision.

The fact that she will be sorely missed is another matter that we will have to deal with and thank goodness for telephones!

In the following post I am going to make a list of guests and hope that others will be able to attend as well.

Please know that I really appreciate the fact that to fly/drive to California for a one day BBQ is asking a lot. I feel this one will be quieter - uh......what did I just say? Well, not quieter - but fewer people will be attending.

Neighbors - you are on alert - I am allowed to have one noisy BBQ a year!
