Hi All,
We, Doug and Linda finally made it home ., Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. ... Those that know the rear end went out on our SUV and they,FORD, fixed it Monday afternoon, but had to wait till the silicone dried to fill it. Tuesday AM we were on the way back home to Wisconsin. We made it.
Thanks to all. Raft up pics going out to all. and esp. to Mike C.
Wow! what a time even with the truck breakdown. More to come. Gotta take a shower!
Drink Kalahara Nooner wine !!!! Good stuff.
Better label.
Doug

Here is the Brandy Slush recipe:
9 cups water and 2 cups sugar and 3 teabags - boil
add a 12 oz can of frozen OJ, a 12 oz can of frozen lemonade and 2 cups of brandy
After it is all mixed and dissolved, put in a freezer proof container (we use an ice cream bucket). Freeze overnight. It keeps in the freezer for several weeks.
To serve: scoop out some slush and add 7 up. ENJOY!
M & B Greene,
THANK YOU soooooooooooooo much for the recipe I have been going crazy without it and going through withdrawal. Now finally we can make a batch and enjoy sitting out watching the wonderful Wisconsin sunsets.
Thanks again for a great weekend
Doug and Linda
