Hi there.
This is going to be a small post with some pictures of our Canada Day lunch at the park. Park residents at Alamo Palms hold a gathering from different states etc so that people from the same area at home can get together down here...compare notes, stories, a good old fashion pot luck, and just a good time. A couple from Alberta held the Canadian one this year. It was attended by approx. 140 Canadians, most of which were from Ontario, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan and Alberta. Also, a few from Quebec and one couple from the east coast.
Dinner was very good, with a nice variety of great desserts.
There was a trivia quiz of about 8 Canadian questions for each table of 8. Our table got 6 of the eight right. Does anyone know the cranberry capital of Canada??? We know we got that one wrong lol. The Quebecers won 1st and 2nd. Congrats to them!!.
After dinner we played an elimination game of curling with frizbies (no ice :o))...Every couple playing represented a different province with a few north, south, east and west varieties. Rod and I played for northern Alberta. We lost the first round, won the second, and then lost the final round to Ontario!! The winners received this trophy of the moosehead. They were led around the hall wearing the hat. 
Not sure I would've won if we could lol. Fun was had by all and the turnout was incredible......we didn't realize that there were that many Canadians in the park. Man, when you add up all the parks in south Texas, its a wonder there's anybody at home. Anyhow, until next time......
