Last few days ...

One of the reasons we stayed a little longer in the Black Hills - apart from just loving being there! - was the Annual Blue Wing Recreation Bob Wessel Memorial Picnic and Party which was held on 18 August.
It is an opportunity for the community at the Blue Wing resort to get together and party. As our South Dakota number plates attest - Great Faces Great Places - so Sheridan Lake is a place to celebrate!
I spent the morning trying to create 2 pavlovas in the microwave/convection oven ... still don't know if that is possible as I finished up with an Eton mess!!!  Go look it up - it is delicious but I clearly need to perfect the pavlova in the oven!!
Ron prepared tri tips - beef sirloin which has been marinaded for 4 days in a variety of marinades - mild to hot - and then cooked in a heated barrel.  Wonderful!!

 



A great night was had by all.  There was a local band playing and dancing after the feast.
Next morning a breakfast of eggs, bacon and pancakes was cooked for allcomers.

Some more memories and happy snaps ...









And then we were off!!
