Day 142 – home braai

Although the ramp is not quite finished, and the works are still going on, we were able to have a braai in our own space with independent access for Colin. He has been out on the ramp a few times, and been into the garden, but this was our first thing in our own garden. This is a bit of a big thing really, because we used to braai in the garden every weekend, and it is something I have been missing. We have been known to have braais that ran the gamut from really fancy with all the trimmings, to a simple sausage on a bun – depending on the relative closeness to pay day.

This time, we had a simple sausage on a bun with some tomato sous, but it was really good.

* braai – South African word meaning to cook meat (usually traditional sausage called Boerewors) on an open fire.

Here are some additional photos of the ramp end by the parking area where the gate is still under construction.
