Fourth of July (and the fifth)

The volunteers on Sao Vicente got together last night to celebrate two independence days:   the fourth of July for America and the fifth of July for Cape Verde.  Lamar decided he wanted to grill out, so that is exactly what we did.  We found a grill, and Lamar and Andrew got to work.  They organized what everyone should bring, the day, and the time.  They prepped the hamburgers and chicken, and they got the grill to the house and on the roof.



Lamar got the grill going great!



All their hard prep-work was much appreciated. We had hamburgeres, chicken, potato salad, cole slaw, fruit salad, salad, cheese dip and tortillas.  You name it, we had it.



Lamar checking in on his favorite part of the meal....the cheese dip.  Andrew had a block of Velveeta he got from home and had been saving.  He was nice enough to share it.



The finished product:  Lamar's burger with everything on it....including cheese dip.



Andrew and Lindsay on the roof.

We all had a very nice time together, and we enjoyed the great food and each other's company.  It was a nice way to celebrate independence day.  Hope everyone's fourth of July is great!
