Benbow August 8, 2009

Betty and Jane having tea


Benbow Inn
What gorgeous country here in Benbow. The weather is perfect and the company is awesome. The day started out with several of the fellows venturing off to the golf course. I have not heard any bragging so guess it was a so/so day. Some of the ladies drove into Garberville to check out the local sites. Ed and I went into Garberville to have lunch with Cousin Steve and Annie. Cute town and the food was good at the local cafe.

This afternoon, Rosie, Betty W., Jane, Betty F. and I walked up to the Benbow Hotel for tea and scones. A beautiful historical hotel with lovely grounds. We had a pleasant afternoon and just nice to relax and visit.


Tonight we had a Burger BBQ with Chef Butch and Mike. Everyone pitched in with go with's and side dishes, and of course dessert. We always have a great time and tonight was no exception. Thanks to the chefs of the evening, was really good.

Seems we are leaving tomorrow morning at various hours, Butch and Betty said 7:00 am and most of us are talking about 8:00 am. If Ed had his way it would be noon... It is about a 5 hour drive but with pit stops and a lunch stop it will take about 7 or 8 hours. Looking forward to meeting up with the rest of our group in Coos Bay.


Having trouble with the photos tonight so I will add more to this blog tomorrow.
