Chili for ten or more

When HW2 makes chili, she makes a pot full. It was good as usual, but there was enough left over that she decided to add some more to the mix and invite all our work camper buddies over for dinner. We also invited several other park regulars and sat outside in our gazebo and visited and ate. I think that there were 11 altogether. The chili was enjoyed, and folks added onions, cheese, sour cream, or red chili as they wished to the mix. We also had guacamole dip and vegetables with dip as appetizers. We finished the whole thing with brownies. The party kept up until about ten and then most went home as we finished the evening talking with Dave and Lois. It was a fun evening and those that had worked on Saturday did not have to come home and cook. We got cleaned up by eleven and hit the sack.

We put up string lights around the top of the inside of our gazebo and a few more concrete blocks around the patio to make the area more hospitable. Max even had company in his pen as Mark brought his dog and Bob and Pam brought theirs. I think that there was chili left, so if you are hungry drop by, and we will gladly share. Happy travels.
