Caroling & Chili in Elk Mt.

Sunday we spent with Jason's parents, Bill and Dee, in Elk Mountain. Jason made a huge pot of chili, which he entered in the fire department's annual chili cook-off. And the winner is...Are you suprised? Its a wonder what you can do with road kill! J/K Jason came in first out of 16 for his yummy elk chili.
Jason's chili is closest to the camera in the tan pot.

The drive to Elk Mt. was very pretty.
The roads were not bad but Shelby was holding on!I didn't get any pictures of us caroling because it was so COLD but I did take pictures of the new fire house. Bill is the chief! A lot of hard work, fundraising, and grant writing went into this building, and this is just his volunteer "job"! We are all very proud of him and the rest of the Elk Mt. fire crew.Bill & Dee in the fire house's new kitchen. Got to keep this short, Jason and I leave for Atlanta tomorrow!

Congrats to Jason, if it was the same chili as at your party, it sure deserved to win. If the recipe is public knowledge, we'd love to get it!
