Summer Happenings

The summer season always seems to be short around the Northwest, and since good weather didn't really begin until July, this year is no exception. Lots of activities and summer events packed into a few short weeks. We Breakfast Bunch gals got together for a really fun potluck BBQ on August 4. The weather was sizzling but we always have GREAT potluck food (lots of good cooks) and GREAT company. Our member Betty hosted us in her beautful backyard, complete with a large koi pond full of her amazing fish pets.

She let us feed them, too. You hold the pellets in your fist and they actually swim up and suck them out. Yes - their fish lips are actually touching you! Not your usual Saturday afternoon activity.

Here's our president Adele manning the bbq. She cooked a giant pork lion for us - yum.

And here are some of our members enjoying the day, the food, and the company.

Garage Sale - with music

In other news, our member Robbie had a moving sale at her house the end of July and invited our club to tag along with some tables. Seems that a good time was had by all - reports of singing, dancing and fun underlined the event. Oh yes, and we had a successful sales day, too. In fact, it was so successful that we decided to hold another sale on September 22. Are you ready????  Ba-ba-ba, Ba-barbara Ann!

Cowlitz County Day of Caring - September 12

The Breakfast Bunch will be participating in United Way's Day of Caring this year by joining RIF Day at Wallace School. (RIF means Reading is Fundamental). Our members will help kids pick out books and then read the books to them in the library that day. It promises to be a worthwhile adventure.
