THANK YOU LADIES LADIES

One thing | can say on leaving
Cassiar, is that the ladies sure can
cook! have had some of the most
delicious Gourmet dinners that ever
a man would desire.

| want to thank all these won-
derful friends for the many times
in some cases, | have been your
guest at dinner.

Dinners that always have been
so well organized and run along so
smoothly.

| did have two experiences |
should perhaps tell you of. In the
first case the Host invited me to
dinner. Just before he left me , he
turned and said, ''oh yes, we' re
going to have Roast Beef and Cold
Duck''. As the day passed on | kept
thinking, Roast Beef and Cold Duck?
Thats an odd combination, stil]
from previous dinners | was well
aware that his wife was an expert
in the Culinary Art and that some-
thing unusual was in store for me.

At dinner my Host, with a big
grin said, 'Well for once we fooled
old Edwards!" Thats when | found
out Cold Duck was a Dinner Wine:

At another dinner where | was
one of the guests, we all sat down
to dinner and that odd little
silence fell...! always think that
we are waiting to see if the Host
is going to say Grace....In this
case the Host said, NAS. a rule we
don't say Grace'' fully expected
him to ask me to. say it. Instead
of that he whipped out a starters
pistol and fired two shots!
