Ocktoberfest

Today started out with a walk and hanging out afterward at Foster's Market (a Saturday tradition).



Later I met up with friends at Guglhupf for
Oktoberfest
September 25, 4-10 pm
Join us for "Rocktoberfest" at Guglhupf with live music by 'Die Nierentische' (a great band from Germany), lots of food and fun! Oktoberfest is a traditional German celebration dating back to 1810 in Munich, Bavaria. Enjoy this festive day with delicious cuisine, paired with outstanding beers and wines. Our traditional German street fare that day will include:
  • Weisswurst, Thueringer (smoked sausage), Bratwurst, Zwiebelkuchen
  • Potato Salad, Cucumber Salad, Red Cabbage, Sauerkraut, Brezels
  • Apple Strudl, Cherry Strudl, Berliners, Apple Fritters
  • Beers: Franziskaner, Spaten Oktoberfest, Spaten Doppelbock, Gaffel Koelsch, Duck Rabbit Märzen
What fun! We got there early enough for a good parking spot. Several people had already arrived and set up a table. Great food, great company.

It was hot. Again.
I am not normally a complainer about the heat in NC, because we usually only have maybe three weeks tops of disgusting heat, but this summer was more like a Florida summer, sticky and hot for what has felt like forever. No rain either, so drought is back. 

Thankfully tomorrow is supposed to be cooler and bring rain. Yay rain!
