I have to quit being so busy trying to tidy up around here and get settled in!
I will try to make it Wwdnesday to see you all, and am still planning on hosting a neighborhood get together for Friday. Yes, things will likely be in a bit of disarray, but we'll make it work somehow!! So please stop by anytime after 4 and say hello, have some apps and a few good drinks!

3037 Amherst Way

Okay...How about this. Janice and I will be at Evans Prairie CC at 8:00pm on Wednesday, December 12 for anyone who wants to do a meet & greet over cocktails. We'll be in the outside lounge area and I'll have a GilBilly sign on the table. That way there will be no confusion...I hope!

See you there!

I sure wish Terry were here to coordinate all of this! I'll be keeping an eye on your lot for signs of construction! Hurry Back!!!

Don't worry too much about the tasting. I don't have high hopes for this first batch. The directions weren't too good and I'm afraid I've made too many mistakes...lol! I wouldn't inflict anything on you that I have doubts about but the Gilly Grog is still bubbling away!

Well, it has to ferment which takes about 6 days to complete, then resting in the bottle for about a week and then aging which takes about 2 weeks so figure about a month until we'll know if I've produced anything that's drinkable. The quality that this has over the 'shine is the aging process!!! rofl This is tough for an impatient person like me!!!!

Default Happenings in the Hood

Gosh--you guys have been way too busy in GillyLand while we're braving the cold and rain up North--we need some sun! Hotrod I hope you're not too exhausted by all the unpacking and entertaining and will have time for a cocktail or two come January. We've been busy trying to tie up all the loose ends of the insurance/furniture/possibly moving some items down,etc. A lot to take care of. Rusty--how's our house? Is it finished and ready for us? We'll be thinking of you all on Wednesday--it's Jim X-mas party so we'll toast as we're missing another fun evening in GillyLand Have fun and enjoy.

If you get bored in between social events and want something to do, Cathy and I have about 16,000 pounds of stuff to be packed. I will feed you and keep you in beverages

Jill and I plan on coming Wednesday! So hope to see you all there... Yippee! No worries, Twin! I always have time for a cocktail and will host again in Jan or Feb. Hope to see many of you on Friday at my place. No need to bring a thing. Trish, hope you are still in town and can make it over! The house definitely won't be together, but either will I! This, however, is the fun part!
