Once again, the Brooklyn Humanist Community had a great summer party. We missed the Fourth this year but celebrated in between July 4th and Bastille Day on July 14th.
Coincidentally, Jean brought a copy of the words to the tune that became "The Star Spangled Banner." It was a very old drinking song, with mythological allusions. I found it pretty much incomprehensible but it must have amused 18th century gentlemen as they imbibed. Speaking of songs, Sheila wants the BHC to have its own theme song. If we can decide on an appropriate prize, we may turn this into a contest.
The food was delicious: hot dogs, barbecued drumsticks, two kinds of potato salad, a lovely garden salad and much more. Bonnie brought us raspberries, cherries and grapes, and Julie celebrated her birthday by bringing a delicious carrot cake.
Many thanks to Michael and Antoinette for their hosting. A good time was had by all!
