Annual Corn Boil ...

Today was our island wide, annual corn boil!!!



The corn was sweet and soooo good!!! Yummy!!! We went to the beach where it is held each year to help shuck the corn!! Worked up a great appetite!! There were 6 big sacks of corn and everyone had all they could hold!
Everyone from the littlest islanders to the elderly make the trek down to Pebble Beach to visit with friends and neighbours and those from 'away' who try to get here each year for the event. The hat is passed and the proceeds go to pay for the corn and the sweets for after are 'potluck'.

Everyone brings something!

When the shadows get longer and the day is winding down most of us are still not in a hurry to get home!
