Happy Buffett Day!
Judging by the text I received yesterday, they looked to be having a horrible time by the pool

Wish you all were here too, We had a great time by the pool last night. Joe McDonald and the Mango Men played. Good times! Got to meet a few BNers we hadn't met before. Looks like a perfect day. Gonna be a hot one!
Drink plenty of liquids. And yes, jello shots do count!

Yep...Got that text too. I had to resort to having some Jumbie to forget about it.
HAHA! At least you had some. I had to resort to Shoo Fly Pie.
I use my Jumbie supply sparingly and wisely!

I thought I heard him on the way into GW. And as a matter of fact, Linda and Kevin were traveling behind me. The sound got weaker as I pulled ahead of them.

It was a great time for us !! You guys ROCK!

Whenever I go to Pittsburgh, I go with a bunch of non-BN people who I've known for more than 10 years. We had a pretty low key tailgate this year, but I did wander the lot a little. I stopped by the Steel City Fins group to say "hi". Blackjack did some job at the grill. The jerk chicken was great and the pork was almost as good.
Thanks to Marty and Moe for the "special beer." I don't remember the brand but it was Canadian and it was good.
Once again I didn't get to see Cory

but I did get to see Tim and Laura (her parents), so it wasn't a total loss.
Oh, it was hot yesterday

Linda I am so glad you all had a great time! It was our pleasure. I have a feeling it will be four buses next year!
More water, pools, and ice next year. And someone remind me to have sunscreen on my shoulders.

Hi folks. Just got back and unloaded. Sorry I didn't get to visit the BN campsite.
It was just too hot for me to roam. Glad some of you made the trek to our
tiki bar. Thought the show was great except for the feedback problems on certain
songs. Dealt with a few rude folks on the lawn but no big deal. Next show I'll be
in the pavilion. It'll be late August so maybe it won't be as hot either.

Your brother wasn't pi$$ing on someone's blanket again, was he?
We had a great time in Pittsburgh, but man it was hot! We walked around a little after we were there for a couple hours, but after that we just hung around our ez-up and relaxed. Good to see you again John. Hope you gave out lots of prizes.
On another note.....thanks to karat for her wonderful organizing of our bus group. The whole thing was top notch all the way! We WILL be doing this again!
Thanks to Blackjack and Blackjack's Wife for cooking such great food for us! It was sooooooo good. We all appreciate your hard work.
And Bern....what great guacamole! Next year we need more Patron!
Nice to meet the other BN-ers too. Couldn't ask for a nicer group of folks!

Nice meeting you yesterday Larry! And you're right - that jerk chicken was awesome! I received a plate as I was driving by to park!

Another great show in Pittsburgh! Thanks to Karat and the Steel City Fins for a great pre-party and a fun bus trip!
It was great to see so many including new friends Bern and his family. And lots of old friends including Brznbeaches, LIPH, Saltx3 and PAParrothead. .Sorry to Big John that I didn't get down to see you, I was busy on the grill ALL DAY!

WOW.......
What a GREAT group of people. Karat, THANK YOU! You put in a great deal of work for all of us, and a lot of time. It is appreciated more than you know. You really made us feel welcome by inviting us into your group. You went way beyond, and your efforts turned a good day into an absolutely GREAT day.
PA Parrot and Saltx3. Such nice people. Salt's countdown we all followed daily, very cleverly done. It was great to meet you in person. PA Parrot, I want to party with you, could see you have great taste, and an understanding, as well as an appreciation for the finer things in life.....as well as the desire to indulge in those finer things......
Brznbeaches I learned best to catch on the first day, errr night, errr bar closing....but as helpful and kind as can be. You definitely made us feel at home! Thank you!
Joe, Mary Kay, and the keets...... not really sure what to say, some of the best people we have ever met. We will look you up again and again, Lori and I felt like we were with long time close friends, not just a family we met hours before. Katie really enjoyed hanging out with your daughter and son, and those that were there, know , not your average Joe on the grill (pun intended) This guy can hang with the best of them, those who missed, really missed a lot. Expertly marinated meats, prepared to PERFECTION. Great combination of flavors, my God, that was some good eating! And it just keep coming! Chicken, pork, beef, ribs, sliders, dogs and even grilled veggies..........roadside Vegas buffet Pittsburgh style! This while in the sun on a 95 degree day. And insistent and generous wanting all to enjoy. Hell, even delivered carside to those waiting to get into the lot! An absolute total class act.............................
Way beyond....... Thank you everyone so much. Those I missed, I am sorry, but it WAS a hard day/night yesterday, and really could use a cocktail...........

Cory didn't make it to Pittsburgh this year but her parents did. Laura, Tim and some old goat in the middle.
