Bar-B-Q at my Dad's House

Red Wagon Express


My Dad is always looking for a reason to invite over everyone and fire up the grill. This occured a couple of weeks ago on the occasion of his wife's (Donna) birthday. Kristy's parents, the Kieths, and some of Donna's relatives along with the Batchelders of Ohio all gathered under my Dad's huge tent and enjoyed some good food and fun.

My Dad buys the craziest things for enjoyment of the great outdoors and then hardley ever uses it, this tent is a good example. I suppose that is why he offers occasions like this to be able to actually find some use out of it. The entire discussion of my Dad's impulsive behavior to buy the latest and greatest camping equipment will be reserved for a later time, for now just keep in mind he was born in Maine. Folks from Maine like knowing they can do something even though they may never actualy do it, i.e. climb Mt. Katahdin the highest mountain in Maine, or shop at L. L. Bean any time they want as it is open 24/7 every day of the year.
