Kyliemac in America : Death in the Afternoon on the Lame-O Beach
Is there a more civilized way to spend an evening than watching the sunset while sipping champagne? Well, maybe, but that ranks pretty high in my book.
This summer, while I was in the states for August, that is exactly what Peter Jon and I did. More or less.
First we had to assemble our ingredients for our cocktail of choice that afternoon which was called "Death in the Afternoon", a little cocktail I learned about on an outing with Kolenda*. So we bought our obligatory bottle of absinthe and bottle of champagne (chilled, of course) at this appropriately named Liquor Store:
Then we headed to the lakeshore where we rode the carousel which had some odd looking creatures....
We dawdled around a bit before heading to the beach. Then we prepped the goods.
Drinking from straws is the ultimate in cool.
"
And then we watched the sun set.
Then we got bit by a billion mosquitoes and got locked into the beach parking lot, but that's the boring part of the story...
