On November 2-3, there were 5 boats that attended the 2nd annual Chili Cook off in Poulsbo. Thirteen people which included 3 youngsters, all under age 8, braved the blustery fall weather.  Forecast for the night was lots of wind, so after securing the boats, we all set off for some beer tasting and comradery at Valholl Brewery. 

At 6:30pm we convened in the Marina party room for some serious chili tasting. We had 7 different chili recipes, 2 cornbreads, a sourdough bread stuffed with brie and a big salad to balance things out. So you can see we were not lacking in food. The wind kicked up to 20-30 knots Saturday night so what better weather for some good chili tasting.  And the winner of our perpetual chili flag trophy was Ron Watt with Jerry Andrews a close 2nd.

Post dinner activities included a round or two of Cards Against Humanity and lots of good laughs. I think it was a great turn out for a blustery November weekend with a reward of some sunshine and rainbows on the trip home on Sunday.

Thanks to all of you all that attended and participated for making this a great event. See you again next year.
