I really wanted to but Renee has been quite sick for over a year. 6 trips to the ER, 2 Cardiologists, 2 Neurologists and three-months of mental PT & no diagnosis. I think she had a Lakunar stroke but all the doctors disagree. So, I'm sticking quite close to home and haven't even been to Sedona for over a year!

That’s it? Someone is holding back. I just talked to Jack (Steve) and he said he and Al are coming early so he doesn’t miss out on Watfa’s dinner.

If that is the total Lena and Watfa will have an easy job this year, that might not be good as they will drink even more wine.

Hat's off to the ladies!! They make it look so easy, but they're working hard!


Irv, hope your fridge is cold enough. I'll be bringing the Official TF Laser Thermometer to verify beer health standards.

It's a free service from your friendly folks at TF!

One week to go!

Menzies Ted is burying his beers so others won’t find them before the gathering.

Al, if the fridge isn’t cold enough we can store the beer in the ice maker. Ted’s cooler is measured 24/7 by the US testing agency in Denver remotely. It’s always at the perfect temperature.

I'm busy planning appetizers for Thursday. Have an unnamed accomplice. If you've seen what I normally make, well, be afraid, be very afraid.
