Long Overdue Swine Festival
« on: July 17, 2023, 09:49:34 PM »
  2018 was our 25th Annual Pig Party, then life and Covid happened ::) so it was time to rally the troops again and make more memories with Pig Party 26 8) It starts with lots of planning and multiple shopping trips and tons of work  :o After last month's facelift on the pit, It was Janie's turn to pick out a few items at the store ;D


Then a few days before (Thurs and Fri) the Trailer Trash starts showing up ;D Only had 5 or 6 rigs and a few tents this year ::) Some setup shop next to The Cyclops  ;D





Why not have a party before the party.....everybody in the pool ! ;D





Time for the work to begin, getting the pig ready and setting up for the big day :)




Can't cook without fire and 3 trailer loads of wood 8)









All buried and time to check for leaks ;)




Off to bed at 2am only to get up and get ready for the big reveal :) Start digging it up at 4pm, Party time !








Time to eat, but first I had to change into my proper shirt ;D





We had a High School Reunion while we were at it. About 25 or so out of 160+ people were from the Class of 1985 8)






My dad's shirt was as loud as mine  :o


Great time had by all even if it was 102 :o



Till next year.......SQUEAL like a pig ;D

My apologies that I couldn't make it Tim.  I have to say, that I was starting to sweat just looking at those pictures and thinking triple digit heat!

Wonderful post and spread as usual!  Class of 85, huh? 

Awesome loud shirt to boot!

Wow you guys ARE prehistoric.

That is a ton of work Tim but the results must be spectacular if you keep coming back to it time and again!

I sure wish I could've joined, but something came up. I was really hungry that day too!
