Good Morning All!

Oh Boy, get a free lunch today!

Department is having a Welcome new VP of IT/Christmas lunch BBQ. The BBQ thing is kind of a department tradition. The past VP of IT and another IT staffer that passed away prided themselves on their smokers so it was always a pot luck affair. A lot of good home made stuff including cherry cobbler and home made ice cream. They always had me bring the beans because I have a secret ingredient they all love, chocolate! Pretty much wipes out the department for the rest of the day. This one is going to be catered. Guess you can't really go wrong with BBQ though.

Oh yeah, everyone brings their families too.

IT is the only department that does this kind of thing. Kind of interesting that the fairly new IT Director is keeping it going since the last VP of IT that retired was always the BBQ chef/instigator calling it his employee appreciation GTG even though everyone brought pot luck dishes.

Amazing it is supposed to be in the 60's today. Four years ago we had an ice storm that caused my cottonwood tree to crash through my new roof with a big limb. Worst part it took out my internet and cable TV slicing the cable run thru the attic.
