Regional Birders: If Larry "Mad Dog" McDaniel is having to take deep breaths to steady his exctiement, you can tell how fired up everyone is about the 11th Annual Bristol Bird Club Regional Christmas Party scheduled this Saturday at 6 p.m. at Piney Flats, TN. near Johnson City. McDaniel, long known as the BBC original party animal, has visions of Christmas dinner dancing through his head. Of course ! Mad Dog has thrown some of the most mind-blowing parties in BBC history. This year at the Parker house will be a year for all years! Mercy! It's Christmas party time with the Bristol Bird Club. Merry Christmas birders !!!!! The lavish and delicous food spread will hit the table just before 7 p.m. This is not a snack party. This is Christmas dinner with regional birders and BBC. Bring one or two covered-dish plates so that we will have plenty of food. We don't care if you buy a salad at Pizza Hut. Just bring a good dish that will feed people. This is Christmas dinner. When the champion, award-winning, cooks of the BBC hit their kitchens, you will be astounded at the good food. It will be a great chow-down evening for everyone. Everyone reading this e-mail is fully invited. Not as guest. This is your party wherever you are from. Come from Wise County, Greene County, Smyth County, Russell County, Buchanan County, Carter, the two Washingtons, Hawkins, Grayson, Johnson, Unicoi, Scott, Dickenson, Tazewell, Wythe, Cocke, Jefferson and anywhere else you are from or were ever from. You need not be a member of any bird club to come to this party. Bring your mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, greatgrandmother, ex-husband, girlfriend, the preacher's wife, grand daddy or great grand daddy. Bring the preacher and the church choir. Bring your child's best friend. Bring the postman or the milkman. Bring your city fire inspector or parole officer ;-) If your city fire inspector is a convict the parole officer is required. Remember, we are at the beautiful Parker home in Summerfield near Boone Lake and Winged-Deer Park. Start thinking now about about what you will bring for dinner. And always remember, our best and biggest parties have been on nights when we had a good rain falling all evening. I am sure you all will never forget Amanda Martin's home in Abingdon on a rainy night when the only standing room we had was where she performed her Irish step dancing. Let's go partying.....
