12-14-09

Well...this past weekend was wet and wild. We are finally getting much needed rain. The baby oats are drinking it up and growing as we speak. Also we had alot of fun on Saturday night. Roy and Jan picked up Farmer Boy and me and off we went to Winters, California. We found a place to park and ran into The Buckhorn Restaurant for a fine dinner. We started with drinks...a Bombay Saphire Gin Martini for me...dry with two olives please and thank you :)  Sierra Nevada Celebration Ales for the boys and Vodka and Grapefruit for Janni. We had calamari for an appetizer;  Farmer Boy ordered a good bottle of red wine to go with our dinner. Mike and Diana showed up and the party was on! Farmer Boy, Diana and Jan had sirloin, Roy Boy had the sirloin burger and I had the Buffalo. Man oh man was it a good dinner. The garlic mashed potatoes were fluffy and the winter squash trio was divine.
Then we dashed across the street to The Palms for the Tom Russell Show. Tom was in fine fettle and  good story-telling mode. So, a fine time was had by all. Farmer Boy bought a t-shirt and CD, he had Tom's wife (the Lovely Nadine) sign it!
To top it all off when we got home the dog was dry! Yippee! Now, that is what I call a good Saturday night!
