I need to post this again tonight instead of on Tuesday Morning. My Father had an abscess of a rare microorganism usually found in patients who have been on heavy Chemo Therapy for more than a year. It is highly resistant and we are waiting for a report from Mayo Clinic to determine the antibiotic of choice. Our hope is that this result will be returned to here tomorrow. As of this time, things are not going well. Thank you for all the prayers, support and your chili love that we have had during the past week.




From Donna Conrad:


The Highland Lakes Chili Pod would like to say "Thank You" to all that came and celebrated New Years in Kingsland. This was a record breaking crowd for this New Years cookoff. The Kingsland American Legion were amazed at the crowd that turned out and was very gracious and thankful. As usual we had plenty to drink and eat to go along with our CHILI-CHARITY-FUN. I can't say THANK YOU enough for my breakfast crew. They were up early every morning to help get breakfast cooked and served by 9 a.m. The Highland Lakes Pod wishes all a Healthy-Happy & Prosperous NEW YEAR!
