WASTE CONNECTIONS, INC PICNIC

was held at Aldrbrook Park which is a private park. We arrived early to stake out the best place to watch the baseball game and to people watch. WC brought a couple of there trucks, boy those things are big. We arrived before the clowns got there, we had to wait for them to get set up with there face painting.
I was the first one to have my face painted, I had a daisy with a bumble bee. Chelsea and Tami had cows.....chelsea's had undders, and Haliey had a butterfly. The center picture is of Cassidy and Haliey at the boat dock, they had been out in the paddle boats earlier, in the lake you can see the fish jumping, and a snake swimming by.
A family that has a rescue farm brought some of there animals on the way we saw a bear in the woods. There were 3 alpaca's, a black and white rabbit that felt like velvet, a ferret, and a Lionhead rabbit. Other animals not pictured was mini horses and small goats. Tami and I went back a couple time to visit and pet the animals.
Here is Tami getting her face painted. The other pix are just us having a great time kicking back and relaxing after a nice dinner. BBQ chicken and ribs, tossed green salad, slaw, potato salad, water melon, corn on the cob, baked beans and rolls. Needless to say no one went hungry. Oh yeah, they also served hot dogs from the time we got there till we left. Needless to say if you left hungry it was not for lack of food being available.
Derek and his children sat with us and it was amazing to watch him with the kids. Fenn four and a half and twins Simone and Estelle two and a half, they are all so cute. They are also very active, Derek would feed one twin and then the other and then the twins would feed him. Fenn even got into helping his sisters eat. It was wonderful watching him with his children, he tried to rest for a while while we watched a baseball game. The last pix is if D and his crew taking a train ride......

What a fun wonderful day we had, thank you Waste Connections for letting us enjoy your picnic. B
