VOLUNTEER PICNIC in Postcards 4

Newly donated Vietnam era Jeep on display at the volunteer picnic.
Neither G nor I had the energy to fix food for the picnic, so we bought a carrot cake at Vons. Everybody likes carrot cake. We arrived on time for the food, and somebody made a magic potatoe salad. That was all gone by the time I reached it as was the carrot cake.
I ate, I schmoozed, and eventually the cold winds chased me away from socialites. I read quietly in Grumpy’s front seat while the picnicker’s faded away and the paid people broke down the tables and chairs. I dozed too. Good stuff dozing. Then home to find a wonderful photo book about San Diego from my librarian friend Katy. Thank you Katy!!!!
The paper bag wrapping for the book contained this additional note….perhaps for her kids….
“Wed.

Goats and Jaeger got double food this a.m. Water buckets full.

What is magic potato salad?
For the record, I don't particularly care for carrot cake.

Oooo nice car - look at all the bees round the honey pot :)
Glad the picnic went well - I agree there's a lot to be said for dozing!

The pantera was a nice looking car. Too bad the good stuff was gone by the time you got to the buffet.
