  We gathered at Laurel Bed Lake in Russell Co.for our annual get together.

  One Bald Eagle and some Black Terns were the bird treats of the day.

  17 brave souls.

  It sprinkled early on, then cleared up in time for us to grill hamburgers and 
hot dogs, then some chicken tenders,  The ladies out did themselves again with 
fabulous covered dishes.  Yes, we feasted.

  Then a driving rain storm with thunder and lightning hit us quickly.  By the 
time we packed up and left, everyone was soaked.  It is still raining over 2 
1/2 hours later.

  Still a great afternoon.
