WING-OFF 2009 PICTURES

There is nothing like being there, but a few photos will help you see what the day was like.

Here's AB Chef Ant helping tend the grill. Thanks to our gracious hosts Khadine and Arthur, everyone was able to have burgers, hot dogs, and shrimp skewers... very nice start to the day.


AB Chef Ant and host Khadine were happy that the sun beat out the rain.
