It is a perfect porch to host a dinner party. And the weather was just right too. I am always impressed when we dine outside on the porch. Greta Barbour and John live in a lovely southern home, complete with a wide front porch. Tonight, Ken and I brought dinner and set it up on the porch. We brought a folding table and everything needed for dinner. The porch already was outfitted with lots of chairs and tables. We were to be a party of 18, but one family had two children come down with chicken pox so they could not attend. Now we have left overs to last all week, for Christina and Greta Barbour especially.
The adults talk and the children play. It has been my observation that home schooled children do not pay much attention to the grade and the age of the other children. They just all play together and get along. My experiences are limited of course but that is what I see.
We brought everything for the dinner. Our condo is small and John and Greta Barbour are always gracious to invite us into their home so when we are in town, Ken and I either take folks out to dinner at a restaurant or we bring dinner over to their home. It is a nice break for Greta Barbour because she does not need to cook or clean up. We bring everything including the plates, cutlery, table cloth, napkins, main course and desert and of course, beverages. The children love it as do the adults. But the best part is sitting on the porch and eating our dinner. It is a real treat.
