Shindig

The local hospital hosts an annual, themed event for a fundraiser. Known as The Gala, all the highfalutin members of society attend. (Plus a few not-so-highfalutin.) This year's theme was Paris. (Last year's theme was James Bond and next year's is Egypt.)

It's held at the Wright Brothers Pavilion and Robin had to staff it. I got to volunteer. Whooowheee! (At least for me because I could drink but Robin couldn't.)

Actually, it's a wonderful event. The community really gets excited about it and it's great for the hospital. Part of the event is the ever-popular silent auction. It was our first silent auction and we went crazy bidding on items. It was fun. We were the proud new owners of, what else? A new surf rod!

See some photos of uhh, Robin's rod, the Eiffel Tower and what the rest of the decorations looked like.
