The kids and I are sitting here druling and sobbing  :'( on the computer wishing we were there.

PT ended up being on call this week and could not get away. He worked yesterday  got called in about 8 then again about 10 and managed to get home about 6 this morning. I tried talking him into telling work were to go and heading out this morning but he just did not think that he could make it up there safely after being up for 24 hours  smiley_sleeping .

So hope everyone enjoyed lunch and eat some for us. food2

Thanks for the pics Jeff, thinking of you all up there, I want to know--the fella wearing a FF T shirt, are these for sale?, if so, how much $$ do I send and to who?-Luv it!!!

I did not know there were "chapters" within the FF family, what about the KIWI chapter? just wondering  ???

Wouldn't you know OWW would be standing there looking for what is "Left".  :D

That pig looks like it is "All Right" to me.  :D :D

I have it on good authority that the "left" hams are the tenderest.   Granddad would take me to Sunrise Grocery, where he was good friends with the butcher, and order a "left" ham.  This scenario would repeat its self every time he would go in.

"I've got some good looking "Right" hams", says the butcher.
"No, Gotta have a left ham, their the most tender.  Most pigs are right footed and scratch with that right foot.  The "right" hams get tough.  They just stand on the left foot and it lets the left ham be the most tender. "

Then there would be a lengthy conversation about wrapping it up and weighing it.  I, being knee high to a toad, would leave thinking that they were some might smart fellows.  :D

I sure missed going to the Piggy Roast this year. :'(  There was just no way for me to make it this time.

The event is always in three distinct phases;  There is Friday evening, when everybody is really pumped and excited about seeing all the old friends and new faces.  Then there is all day Saturday with wall to wall people and not nearly enough time to visit with everybody.  But Sunday morning has turned out to be my favorite time there, both times I've been able to attend.  It is quiet and calm, with just a few folks around, mostly long-time and very active Forumites.  That is the time when you can get in a real quality visit with someone you have admired for a long time.

I got a little blue this past Friday night, and was a touch bummed out all day yesterday, but I'm downright melancholy this morning.  I really wish I was there.  :-\

I've never even been to one, DanG, and I'm still bummed out.  Ah well.  The folks who did make it look like they had a great time.  Guess we'll have to live vicariously through their experiences and plan on making it next year.

DanG

Yep, I'm already involved in talks with some folks down thisaway about planning next year's trip. ;)

Here Pasbuild and I are waiting to take the,
Hey you are going to hit it picture.



Didn't happen Stumpjumper got it put in place.




Smokey looks happy here.  :D




Thanks everyone it was a fun time.
I have more pictures and just need to weed through them and upload.

RavioliKid

Wow!

What a great time! I'm so glad I could finally make one at the Jeff and Tammy Estate!

If I can figure out how to shake the pictures out of my camera, I'll post a couple.

Dad was very interested in the Rust Reaper sample, and he eyed up my Wood Mizer cap. He'll probably grab it before I have a real chance to break it in...

I left my orange directors chair behind. Oh, well...It could become the RavioliKid Hot Seat...

Thanks again to everyone for such a wonderful time - especially the hosts!

So Sat morning caught Pasbuild eating.




Then a few of the piggy being un-trussed.






Not sure what I did to OWW, but he was giving me the evil eye. :D




Here Pasbuild was asked to sign a couple pcs of fine work he made.
We told him he had to use his name not an X like normal.  :D







Dan Shade caught wearing one of the Smokey hats.




And from this morning, Poor Pigman after too little sleep and to much fun.

Raviolikid,

I occupied the Hotseat chair this morning in your honor, so it was well used.  I really enjoyed meeting you!  You are a sweetheart.  Good luck in your educational endeavors, and let me know if I can ever aid you in any way.

BTW, that camper is so cool ;D.

Kevin_H,  those cinnamon laced pancakes with the maple syrup were simply outstanding, and I want to thank you for your generosity.  You have a wonderful family, and you cook good grits :D ;D.

Pigman , would you be so kind as to give a hug to that witche of yours for me , if any , that is one thing I will miss is giving it to her myself  :'( :-* :-* ( she can give you one back if you need one ..  ;D )  

 
Marcel, I have mixed emotions about not seeing you at the pig roast. I wanted to see you :'(, but I am not sure I wanted you to give my wife all those hugs you promised. >:( I will hug her for you instead. ;D We all Americans know how the French speaking men can sweep the ladies off their feet. :o
