Block Party

We had a block party BBQ with our neighbors last night. We had a fun time getting to know some of the fun, and frankly rather strange neighbors we see but never stop and talk to. I sat and talked to our next door neighbor most the night, she was pretty funny.

The fire department even showed up with hats and goodies for the kids!

...and finally, a tip for everyone.
