Chef's in the Garden



Last night was Chef's in the Garden at the Botanical Garden of the Ozarks. I was one of the volunteers selling drinks, but I also got to sample all the great food from the different chef's that participated. Chef's in the Garden had great food in a great location. This is a yearly event so if you missed it this year you can plan on going next year.

Polo in the Ozarks





Susan, Barbara and I went to Polo in the Ozarks last Saturday. Held for the past 21 years at Buell Farm in Goshen, the proceeds from Polo in the Ozarks go to Life Styles. We sat out in our lawn chairs enjoying the great weather, the tailgate party and all the food from 12 different restaurants in the area. I had never been to a polo match before so when this came up I put it on my very fluid bucket list. I enjoyed seeing the how the riders and their ponies worked together to play the game. There are pictures of some of the spectators, the ponies and riders, and people stomping davits at half. Wells Fargo was one of the sponsors and the Wells Fargo stage came out on the field at half time. We had a great time and all agreed that we would go again next year.
