We didn't have any real obligations until late in the evening and Jacque and Lynn had to get to the winery around noon to begin preparations for the Party at the Peak.
We used our time to make a Costco run down past Auborn down highway 80. It was Saturday and Costco was packed, so packed that we didn't even think twice about not getting a hot dog. What we found were great liquor prices, which we did not expect, one example is that we pay $50 for Grey Goose in the Austin area at discount and at the Costco store it was $42. Also bought some Coors Light, Kirkland Vodka, a product of France that some say is made by Grey Goose, I have my doubts, and other stuff. We then went in search of the Origin's store that was in a mall across the highway to get Sharon some body lotion. Lunch was at the Cheese Cake Factory in the mall, great salad.
It was back to the house to get ready for the Party at the Peak. We did not have to get there until around 7 as they stop serving dinner at 8 and we wanted to eat. It was a great party with about 200 people in attendance, a live blues band and catered food, Lynn got the night off from cooking. This is the main fund raising activity and they do it every Saturday night beginning in May and running into the fall, until it get too cold. Everyone is involved including a host of volunteers that just keep coming back for the thrill of it all.
