As of today there's only 21 days remaining until the long-awaited Coop Fest/Party. And they seem to be counting down a lot faster that a few months ago when we first decided to have it.
We used the days and sometimes nights to freshen up the place a bit. But it hasn't been easy. The heat this year has been horrible, driving us back into the house to the safety and comfort of the Air Conditioner.
I keep asking myself what we did back in the 40's and 50's to deal with the heat. All I could remember is we either worked through it or took off to Hawthorn Creek where the water was cold and clear, coming from a spring not too far away.
Now I have a spa right in my back yard that I can jump into 85° water in the Summer or 100° water in the Winter. So I've been taking full advantage of that 85° water this Summer.
Oh, the reason I started this post was to let everyone know that we have about 50 "definitely will be here's" and maybe 20 to 25 "maybe I'll drop by's." And a lot of those who are coming are cooking up some really special dishes. So come hungry.

See you in three weeks.
