Baumann's 2009 Buffalo Hunt BBQ
John and Nancy Baumann hosted a potluck BBQ dubbed "Buffalo Hunt" for our Class of 1961 reunion committee, and as a special treat John played the guitar and led us in a sing-along. John's BBQ ribs were delicious and Corky's sugar-free berry cobblers were out of this world. Click here to see photos of the party. I also shot some video footage with a new pocket size Flip video camera that I'm still getting used to, so please excuse the jerky camera movements (I've discovered that it's difficult if not impossible to do smooth pans, tilts and zooms with a camera that small).Next time I'll bring my pro camera. Anyway, we all had a good time as you will see.
