A great time was had by all at the August 1st picnic at Joni’s.

The Margarita Machine

The weather blessed us with warmth, rain and sunshine.    Our chef’s Vic Villalobos, Tom Kemp and Lowell Catlett (Joni’s husband) filled us with a delicious array of pizzas from Joni’s and Lowell’s brick pizza oven (Vic was so impressed with it he went home and ordered one), and a beautiful salad.  We also shared in a birthday cake,  to help Mike Beckett celebrate his birthday, provided by Veronica, Mike’s wife, and a delicious apple crisp. And of course the ubiquitous Margarita machine served up its always delectable beverage, to the joy of all who consumed its tangy elixir.   Good food, drink and conversations shared with fellow Rotarians and their families, what more could you ask for?
