Mary,
Suzy and I will be there!
Looks like you need brats... we'll be glad to bring 3 or 4 packages (think they are 5 each -- uncooked Johnsonvilles)
Thx,
Gary

I can bring a dessert! Not sure what it will be just yet, and probably only one...perhaps Dark Chocolate Grand Marnier Cake!
Does anyone like pickles on their burgers or relish with their brats? Let me know and I can bring some of that too, if needs be...otherwise, will bring some for me!

I guess I could make a pan or 2 of fudge and hide it at the motel til saturday.....
Other than that, with the distance involved, I could bat cleanup and run out to the store and get whatever is in short supply when more people show up than anticipated.....
