Labor Day Pig Roast


Sunday afternoon we were invited down to the Helling house in Gig Harbor for some sun, water time - and a pig roast.  Leif had acquired a full pig, and after butchering and marinating overnight, it was set in the fire pit all day to roast for dinner.  I kept watching in awe, because except for Hawaii, I've never seen a full pig roasted right in front of me.  Needless to say, the end result was delicious :)  Besides the pig, we spent the day on the Relaxation Station, taking out the lasers and wind surfer for a spin, and lounging around on the grass with friends soaking up the last days of summer.  Thanks for inviting us, Autumn and Ryan! :)
