Country Western Weekend stayed mostly dry

While there was plenty of mist and drizzle, not much rain fell over the weekend, which allowed us to enjoy the bonfire on Thursday evening with Double Play, as well as the other bands. John Penny performed on Friday for the first time here in years (he was here back in the early 1990's quite often), and Saturday featured The Luv-n-Country Band in the afternoon and Westwind on Saturday night. While my favorite band is still the Outriggers, and I admit that I don't know much about country music. I must say that Westwind's performance of "Runnin' Scared" might be my favorite song performed here--great job with that classic Roy Orbison tune. Sunday featured The Hard Luck Aces, who had been here on Saturday night the last couple of years, but were booked at a local country fair this year for Sat PM. We served about 125 lobster dinners--and the cooks and servers were so fast, that we ran low on the trays that usually make their way back to the kitchen after the first wave. Thanks to Glenn and his crew for the lobster and corn, while Juan in the Grill took care of the chowder and taters. While we had pretty good Bingo crowds, nothing like we will see this coming weekend for Bingo Bonanza. More on that soon.
