Congrats!  Hope you are ready for a life change!  No fear you will love it.  My baby (He is 24 now) is my best smoking buddy.  I have 3 kids and 6 grandkids now (we are a prolific bunch of Texicans) Enjoy them while you can, life is way too short. Burk

Sounds like a good plan.  The apple juice idea is good, sometimes I smear a little grape jelly on them at the foiling stage.  Trust me it works.  lol Burk
