The First Holiday Party Hawg Style held Saturday, December 13 is as they say, “in the books.” I think the quote, “in the books” translates to, “no longer can you make changes, what’s done is done and a permanent record has been made.” Having said this, you are all safe, like in Vegas…………here.
The rules for this Party, wear a favorite motorcycle or Hawaiian shirt, bring a wrapped gift for the gift exchange and a dish to pass. Prior to opening gifts, we had a smorgasbord of snacks, dips, hot dishes, venison sausages, wine,beer, punch and stimulating conversation. For many of us it was the first time getting together since the September Tourin’s Hawgs Overnight Ride to the Cave.
Each party attendee who brought a gift was asked to draw a number from a cup. Numbers ranged from 1-70. As your number was called you selected a gift under the Christmas tree. The next person could then “steal” any opened gift instead of selecting a wrapped one. If your gift was “taken from you” then you
could steal an opened gift or select from the remaining gifts under the tree. Cathy and I first used this method on our Christmas in July Ride in 2006. Gifts were stolen, later to be stolen again! A great
time was had by all,
probably no greater then the gift of the evening, two genuine Harley-Davidson t-shirts that Sarah having the highest number stole! Gifts had to be under $10. Can you imagine two HD shirts totaling fewer than ten bucks?
Afterwards more food and conversation continued into the night. Thanks
again to all for making this another memorable get-together!
Cathy and I wish all of you a safe and blessed Christmas!
