The Big Bang

 by Charlotte Hinger


And a grand time it was too. The whole Hinger clan met in Beaufort North Carolina for a 4th of July celebration. We hope to establish a tradition similar to our beloved Phez Phest which took place in Hoxie Kansas every fall. 

Of course the Coast House event is minus the bird dogs and the hordes of friends who came from all over lugging musical instruments. But we got off to a wonderful start. Our host, Cheryl Flink and Jim Vetricek have a terrific four story house with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. It's right on a private beach that fronts a waterway that leads to the Atlantic ocean.

The meals were wonderful. Harry and Michele Crockett are first class white water people who organize week long rafting trips both small and large. They divided everyone into meal teams who were responsible for the evening meal. 

Michele surprised everyone with these matching T shirts. 

Happy rest of the year to everyone.
