Happy "Day Before Labor Day" from Sunny Haven!

A big group from Sandpipers has gathered for the 7th annual Labor Day Reunion at Sunny Haven in Granger, Indiana....in spitting distance from the Michigan border.

There are 21 peeps here this year, most from Sandpipers, a few friends from other clubs.

We play cards, scrabble, read, hot tub and swim, shop, sightsee and then all gather for a rollicking good Happy Hour with good eats, followed by the best food you can imagine!  For instance...last night we ate pulled pork (smoked by Barry M.), coleslaw, potatoes, corn, beans, homemade bread from Hilton, BBQ sauce including Jon's House Special....followed by Dick & Sharon's homemade ice cream with chocolate sauce, sugar cream pie, bars of chocolate from Marijanne...and it goes on and on!  Burp!

Jon coordinates the dinners and with a big group of guys, goes shopping every morning for that night's meat.  We sign up for sides and/or appetizers in advance so nobody has that much cooking to do...except for Jon & Donna, with help as needed.!  Thanks guys!

It has been pretty rainy which I really don't mind 'cause, to me, rain is a novelty!  But the temps are quite comfortable.  Warm enough for outdoor showers, cool enough (in the shade) to even welcome a t-shirt.

Heading north on Tuesday for a week before returning to Dr. Bob & Catherine's for my next doctor appointment.  Time for a nose job.  Hope I won't end up with Bob Hope's nose!

Toodles, SueZ
