Team fun day

I don't ordinarily blog about things that go on here around work -- nobody really cares that much and it's sort of a policy of mine. Still, we had a fun day that my electronic products team was in on. It was raining; we could all melt. It turned into lunch with a "rain check." By the end of lunch it was only drizzling -- kind of like Seattle on a day by day basis, I think. Anyway, scenes from the bar-b-que:

Just happy to get outside and pretend we live in Vancouver. (You don't have to shovel it, anyway.)

The boss surveying the situation:

While Jill remains in complete control.

Now we get to the main event . . . bar-b-que.

Hey, come on "chef" -- it's a bar-b-que . . . in the rain. What's with the get-up?

Simon surprised by my sneak attack papparazzi move.

Susanne and Mike not as surprised, although that's surprising.

Gary, who was fully expecting to get caught with a spoonful of sundae going in.

And, finally, the price to be paid for wearing a suit to a pic-nic, bar-b-que party. Stylist Cal "Arrojo" (for those unfamiliar, TLC's What Not to Wear has a stylist that can make anybody look good. His name is Nick Arrojo) applies the product (read: Cool Whip) to Nantais.

And fun was had by all. Now get back to work.
