The staff did a nice job keeping everything moving smoothly and distributing the hors d’oeuvres, which consisted of vegetable plate with wrench dip, shrimp with cocktail sauce, cheese, and crackers, and a brownie bite for dessert. They had a good offering of different wines and beers and sodas. Sadly, we did not see any wildlife to speak of except birds. It was fun to visit with the people around us, of which there were a lot! It was impressive to see the crew of Milo, Mary, Dan…”
