We started the weekend strong with Ed and Martin who leave WA with a plan and feed us a warm and delicious meal just as we get into town. Thanks to Jim for stepping up for Saturday supper (also for just plain making it to CA) and to Lee and Robert for their help with Sunday dinner.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Applause to the fire stokers, coffee makers, kitchen cleaners, shoppers, dishwashers, table toters, meal bosses and helpers. An extra shout out to Mauro for doing the big Costco shopping trip and bringing delights from Douce France for breakfast and dessert. Gratitude to Lee for the fruit salad every morning and to Rob for pulling extra kitchen duty. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers to Joanne for keeping the motorcycle torch lit and keeping our record as a continuous 2 wheel affair. We'll be back on our bikes next year. It was a special year with the appearance of Blue, the next generation Jughandler and child of an O.G. Sheeprancher, DaVE Doudna, not retired yet.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Also not retired yet, Felipe was a grand help in the big birthday scheme, and a Martha Stewart-level decorator. And I'm so thankful to have Godfrey, well, anywhere!<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="">Ajax ably handled the K-9 duties and Ajax was ably handled by Sara. He would have been a sweet docile pup by the fire if only he were allowed in. </div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The big numbers are as follows: Lodging $2438.20, we only incurred the charge for 1 cabin 1 night that we didn't use, not too bad. Food $604.53 Wine $314.30 for 17 bottles, we had 4 leftover that we will bring back next year unless someone wants to buy them from the cave. Local delivery only.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">There is a <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JjpOuj9syESsxW24sBG9pCtXL_kKucTTlKOtyDhAZnA/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank" class="">spreadsheet</a>.
