Now, the important issues, what do we want to eat?

The CLUG picnic this year was a great success for the dozen or so folks attending. Food fare was excellent including broiled hot dogs and hamburgers prepared by Master Chef Steve Jones, delicious salads, diet killing desserts and, of course, cold water and sodas.

The shelter provided a safe haven from the sun with a cooling breeze accentuating the ambience of a relaxed summer day. Despite the sultry combination of sun and humidity outside the shelter the dining facility was comfortable.

The younger set chased down to the water nearby and proceeded to take a dip. Elder curmudgeons observed and expounded on the ballistics of an old .20 caliber air rifle that was used to punch holes is various targets attached to a tree (full range sarfety procedures were implemented). Later, conversations turned to a variety of technical toys, how they work and how to do-it-yourself.

As always at a CLUG gathering, it was fun to exchange ideas with clever people and enjoy a good meal.

Plan on joining us next year for another fun event. The more toys you bring, the better.
