Owing to numbers, the annual TTOL Bastille Day party was moved to Avalon in Paw Paw, West Virginia this year. If anything, there was even more food as 67 people feasted <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" /> starting around 1 and ending, well, I’m not sure it ever really ended. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> This was the first use of the new Condo Party Room at Avalon, and it worked well. Along with Carib and Red Strip, there was plenty of Budweiser, Fosters, and other various beers to quench the assembled thrust. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Cheers.gif" alt="" /> Wine, including a special TTOL Bastille Day Party vintage was also available. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> People were there from Canada<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/canada.gif" alt="" />, Missouri, and Massachusetts, as well as the surrounding states <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/usflag.gif" alt="" />. Frank’s evil twin unfortunately also showed up wearing a three cornered hat emblazoned with a jolly roger. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pirate.gif" alt="" /> Alas for him, a parrot was pouched on the hat, and appeared to have relieved himself over one side of the hat. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> Nonetheless, Frank’s evil twin passed through the crowd pouring a potent brew aptly named “Mort”. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pirate.gif" alt="" /> I might add that a real parrot and cockatoo also visited the crowd. These two were much better behaved than the parrot pouched on Frank’s evil twins hat. Bill and Linda, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> as usual produced great quantities of food, and much more was brought by the assembled guests. The most common complaint was the feeling of being a stuffed pig <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Oink.gif" alt="" /> as the evening approached.
That evening the Bastille Day revelers, waddled down to the Saturday night dance,<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/dance.gif" alt="" /> to attempt to work off some of the excess calories consumed during the day. You have not really lived until you see the Electric Slide nude! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />
In short, everybody had a grand time, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/circle.gif" alt="" /> as they have in the past Bastille Day parties, and plans are already being made for the next year!
