Fall in Zima

The weather was great this entire weekend.  It's hard to believe that it was snowing a week ago.  Yesterday we had Max's entire department and their families over for a BBQ.  He's been wanting to do it for a long time.  In fact, I brought stuff from Houston this summer for the BBQ.  Velveeta and Rotel for Queso and Texas sausages.  Everything turned out great.  Most of the guys in his department are Russian, so of course they brought vodka for a toast. 
Max grilled burgers.  The Russians don't really eat hamburgers so we had to tell them how to fix it with the lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, etc.  You can buy hamburger buns here, but only one place in town sells them and you have to slice the buns open yourself.

Today we went for a walk on the trail around the perimeter of the housing complex.  I snapped a few pictures of the changing leaves.
There's a big neighborhood next to our complex where they are building some really nice and big houses.  
Who is this crazy guy?

Love to you all,
Karen
