Champagne and Chocolates

What a busy weekend it was for us. Friday night we went to the Beartooth Harley HOG Appreciation BBQ. This is the one that the dealership puts on for the HOG chapter. The chapter then puts one on for the dealership in September. This year the dealership had some people cook burgers, hot dogs and chicken for us. What a disaster that was. There were about 30 people that came for the event and the cooks ran out of potato salad. About 10 people went through the line before they ran out. They even ran out of hamburger buns. I guess they don't know how to count. By the time I got through the line, I had my burger on a hot dog bun and chips and salsa. That was it. They did have beer and didn't run out of beer. Priorities. Still had fun even though the food was horrible. I don't think these people will cook again for the dealership.

We spent the night in Billings on Friday night anyway because we intended to drink, besides we also were leaving early in the morning for Meeteetse. Gary was still hungry after his "snack" so we ate at a little casino right next to the motel. After dinner I gambled. I was $1 short of winning back what we spent on dinner and gambling. It was fun.

We got up early Saturday to make our way to Meeteetse, had to be there at 9:30 am for champagne and cake. It was a nice drive and we made it in plenty of time. Met Mom and Grandma at Lucille's and the first thing we got was a glass of champagne. There was chocolate cake, chocolate truffles, cookies and mints for snacks. I did not care for the truffles, not sure what flavor they were but to me it was not good. Alot of people came in to give birthday wishes to Grandma. We then went to the house to get some visiting in and regroup before lunch. Gary took us out to eat at the Cowboy for Mother's Day. It was very good. Took some photos and will be getting those posted up soon. We then went back to the house for more visiting. Gary and I left around 5:00 to head back home.

Sunday I had a pleasant day just relaxing around the house. Nothing special.
