Pub Runners and Lee the Blacksmith!

The last few days have been busy. It was the Pub Runner's last weekend on the island and it was the day before my day off. Earlier, work was tough that day but I was able to make all that fudge (we usually have twice as much on the day before my day off - go figure). Then a few of us went to Father Rey's dinner at St. Anne's. It was a small feast but I think he just wanted people to come and have a good time. Played some games afterward - lost to Dave at Pool and lost (purposley) in foosball to Katie.

Heath can go tipsey with those drinks!
Now thats a funny look Father!

 

We then headed to the VI to meet some more people who were having their dinner: Stephanie, Jenny, Marie, Trace, Craig, and more. Father, Katie, and I had dessert - couldn't believe I can still eat after that huge dinner! At least I had my coffee. Then we all slowly headed to the Irish Pub for the party. Katie handed out our special shirts that the Pub Runner's made. I'm glad to be an honorary Pub Runner fan! And of course the nite took off like there was no tomorrow.


The Pub Runners working hard to make everyone happy!

Um Katie, what song were you doing this to?
Don't we just look cute together?
Craig and Paul getting crazy at the back.

Let's get this party started...

Doing the hokey pokey of course!

Half of these people were drunk - I think.

Who loves the Blacksmith?

Oh Jenny I miss you.

Ben as the seventh old lady.

I think we were just getting ridiculous toward the end.

Final pic before we left.

Sunday was my day off. I was glad it was a sunny day. Didn't do much but hung around the island. This was also the last day of the Blacksmith shop being open. So of course I went to visit and next thing you know it, I'm pounding away on a hot metal piece on an anvil! Actually it was a lot of fun working with the hammer and dressing up. You fort people are so lucky!

These coals are hot.
Trying to make a point (literally).
Heating the metal - like this serious look?

"Whistle while we work..."

It's actually easy once you get into it. Right Dave?
