Grit Chips, Golf, BBQ, Moonshine and country music

[..]

What a great weekend to be working  

No motorcyle riding but the weather was perfect for it.

Arrived at Chateau Elan in the SS Grit Chips



Parked up by the Irish pub on site



The interior of my home away from home  



The Colt Ford golf tournament was preceded by a night of BBQ, fun and frivolity



The head cook from The Roswell Tap cooked some amazing BBQ. Some of the best I have ever eaten and no it's not the moonshine talking



My boss/friend Sean with Colt Ford



Colt and the cooking crew from the Roswell Tap



Colt Ford's moonshine. There are to be 4 flavored varieties launched alter this year.

I've drunk quite a bit of legal and illegal shine and this is really good. No, I wasn't influenced by the woman handing out shots

She's part English and a good candidate for Oss's secretary



I must have had about 10 shots Sunday night and woke with a clear head Monday ready to drive a golf cart like I stole it.  

I got some coach envy seeing the musicians wheels



Crappy burger on the lunch menu at Chateau Elan.



After the golf zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz came the concert.

I'll list those who played in no order of importance.

Colt Ford
John Anderson
John Michael Montgomery
Edwin McCain
Bo Bice
Justin Moore
Darius Rucker
Jamey Johnson
Sister Hazel
Brantley Gilbert

A few others I can't remember - darn that moonshine

The concert lasted for nearly 2 1/2 hours with only about 350 in the audience.

Yep Justin sang his hits
Justin Moore 'Small Town USA'

Colt Ford and Justin sang this
Colt Ford - Dirt Road anthem

Great report Paul 
The wife and I have stayed at Chateau Elan once and had a great time. Went on the wine tour and sampled many wines that are made there.  I would like to have been there this past weekend, and sampled the moonshine and BBQ.

I love those GRITS  (girls raised in the south).  That song rocks by Brantley Gilbert.

A word of warning on posting here and other sites about work related events/issues.  Be very careful of what you post since if it ever gets back to your boss and leaking out confidential information,  you may be looking for your next job.

I know your job is not as confidential as other office jobs per say, but we had a person in our warehouse take a picture of a packing list on his personal cell phone FOR BUSINESS purposes, and he almost got fired for using his PERSONAL cell phone for business use.  I know it sounds anal, but stranger things have happened.
