A monsoon sky welcomed 30 members of the British Club for their taco night on the patio at SaddleBrooke Ranch.
With thunder in the air, a delicious buffet was served consisting of soft and hard shell tacos with accompaniments of ground beef and chicken, refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. An open bar was available for drinks.
Later in the evening, the heavens opened, and a much-needed downpour rained down. Luckily, the patio had adequate shelter for all to enjoy the evening watching the spectacular view of the rainstorm, resplendent with a wondrous rainbow following, amidst the wonderful views at SaddleBrooke Ranch.
A marvelous time was had by all enjoying the camaraderie of members and friends. Everyone thanked Ethel Willmot and her Social Committee for organizing this fun event for the British Club.
