BBQ Chicken at the Cabin on May 12, 2007



Jimmy and Bonnie Lark stayed at the cabin Friday night and we hickory smoked 2 hams and barbequed chicken. When I picked up the hams and chicken the portions were much larger than expected so the meats took over an hour longer than expected. Some people got hungry and left but not before hearing quite a bit of good music. The Earl Reeves family was visiting from Montana so they were able to come to the BBQ. They all sang or played instruments. Also, we had Cecil Reid, Bill Gordon, Oscar Anderson, Lewis Pace, and their group “Royal Blue”, Carman and Faye Cassell, Higher Ground, and several children sang. Mr. James Stephens (my sister’s father-in-law) did a great job of singing Jimmy Martin’s “All Around the Water Tank Waiting on a Train”. This was a special treat since he has Alzheimer’s.



Looking back through the photos of the BBQ, I see people that were here that have already passed on. There were about 100 people at the BBQ.



Now that we have a kitchen built onto the cabin, we hope to have more get-togethers as soon as the economy picks up.
