Barbecue at John's Place

Robert and I went to John's beach house for dinner and met Kelly and her mother Michelle. The daddy, Ken, had played golf with Robert and John earlier in the day at Agate Beach. We all enjoyed the gorgeous sunset and lively conversation. Dace was in Bend at a tennis tournament.
I made the cowboy caviar that I had had at Pam Kruse's house at bunco. I served it as a salad instead of with chips. Worked out just fine!
Michelle brought a pasta dish.
John barbecued steaks for everyone. I had the best fillet mignon ever!
While the guys were playing golf Michelle and her daughter were out on the sand in Taft on the bay. She put sun block on her daughter but forgot about herself until about 3 pm. A bit late.... Ouch.




John served vanilla ice cream with fresh raspberries and a raspberry liqueur on it.
Kelly had plain ice cream. She wasn't always this serious. I think Ken just wanted her to try it.

Somehow Robert and John challenged each other to arm wrestling. It ended in a tie.
