Oktoberfest at die Reiter Haus 2010 [now with pics]

[TreeFrog Frank]

I'm getting excited!!
On Sept. 18 (the opening day for the official Munich Oktoberfest), my wife and I are having our 1st Annual Reiter Oktoberfest!! Going to have lots of good German eats (cooked by me) [Jagerschnitzel, spatzel, German potato salad, brussel sprouts in butter and bacon, boiled brats with kraut, homemade pretzels, onion tarts, apple strudels!], beer, games, cigars... you name it. I hope it all goes well. Should be a fun time!

I know Dan is coming, and Aaron (HalloweenHarry). Anyone around my area interested? Open invite...

C'mon... it's not a party til the snakes get passed around!!

Just keep 'em bagged until late in the evening... after many beers later...

It's all fun and games until someone gets bit :nono:.

Frank, I really appreciate the invite my friend and wish I was just a little closer to your neck of the woods. I hope everyone has a great time my friend!

 

[TreeFrog Frank]

I'm hoping for NO rain... don't have room in the house for everyone! *haha*

That's alright, Larry... I do, indeed, hope to meet up with you, sometime! Would be a great honor!

I would love to go and get back to my German roots. But you live to damn far away. You guys have fun out there. We have like a cowboy Oktoberfest here never been to it. Might have to go this year. Enjoy my brothers.

It was an awesome time!! It was a bit warmer than I would have liked, though!!

I started off the celebration with the first keg of Marzen beer tapping!

I think we had about 25 people show up? There was a TON of food... still passing out leftovers.

I didn't get NEARLY the number of pictures as I wanted to of the food and festivities, but here are some.

Homemade pretzels:

German potato salad:

Here is the selection of beverages we provided:

Dan (danthebugman), in all his glory...

Aaron (HalloweenHarry31) [who does NOT post on here, enough, anymore]:

And Dan and myself...

I'm already looking forward to having the 2nd Annual next year!!!

Thank you so much, Dan!!!
