Sunday got better as the day progressed

At 4 o'clock this morning I awoke to the sound of my skull smashing into the edge of a cabinet, It wasn't so much a bang as a thud and a squish as I felt the hard wood corner puncture its way through the skin, I knew there would be blood.
So I did what I should rolled over and went back to sleep. the day could only get better...

 Today was the Remembrance Service, Motorcycle Rodeo and Pig Roast.

People were told to arrive by noon and they did, they also came at 1230, 1pm, 2pm..well... they came in all day. Steve Natale and Jim Said a few words and the ashes of departed members were spread.
Thibbs ran the grilles with help from others and the food began to flow. The Day was warm and the sun bright, but there was plenty of shade to go around.

The Rodeo was a success with participants and on lookers enjoying the day.

Patty and her Roasting partner had come the day before, had soaked, stuffed, wrapped and then roasted the pig all night, Cooking fire, mosquito netting and wine. At 3:30 on Sunday they unwrapped their work and began carving the 200lb pig. Lines formed, people ate, and people played.

The raffles were run and winners chosen, The Black Powder rifle and pistol set went to the New London PD Motorcycle Officer which we pestered to buy a ticket at the blessing, she bought one, with her only $5.00,  today...she took home the guns.

It turns out I took over 350 fotos...They are not all going here...but...here's a few...
