Last Friday we invited some friends over for our Black Friday Party, and, as usual, good times were had by all. When the whole world goes mad and shoppers storm the malls and discount stores, I like to gather some good friends down by the pond, where we light some fires to keep us warm and cook some food. And at sunset we tap a keg of the finest beer know to man.

Friday night was pretty chilly and after sunset temperatures soon dropped to below freezing. We had two burn barrels and a campfire blazing We cooked sweet potatoes Manfred and Nancy had grown and grilled hot dogs  and made s’mores. People brought various snacks and someone brought a tasty stew. We had to keep the keg near the fire to keep the beer from getting too cold. Everyone agreed that this was a much better way to spend Black Friday than shopping at the mall.

Nothing like sharing a keg of Foothills Sexual Chocolate Stout with some good friends to close out an exciting and fun week. First the trip to Paris, then a huge Thanksgiving dinner (with some Agbessi and his cousins), and then the Black Friday  party. For the weekend we had house guests and on Sunday Dain, Jenn and Walter came over for a drink. After that, Laura and I took Wally and Cleo out for a canter through the woods. Good fun.
