Cool! Are those rosemary TREES in the yard? Sigh... Last time in Vegas I clipped like 3 lbs off a hedge of rosemary. can't get it to grow that well here in MI.

We rode the Harley down to Brandon, so we didn't get to bring home any left-overs. But we did have a wonderful time. We stayed overnight at the Days Inn in Brandon and stopped at an anniversary celebration on the way home at the Crystal River Harley Shop. What a blast.....and today is my birthday.

Wow... and I was stuck out at Camp Brorein in Odessa with fifty screaming Cub Scouts eating campfire hot dogs on a stick. At least I got to help them shoot a whole bunch of water rockets - awesome weather for it. I'll definitely be coming out to the next one!

The scouts attach fins to an empty 2 liter soda bottle, fill it about 1/2 way full of water, slam it down on the business end of a PVC launch tube that's got a little release mechanism on there... hook it up to the air compressor and put about 80psi in it... they pull the cord to release it, and POW - they usually go about 40-50 feet up... and the fins usually rip off on the first launch.

Should've ducked out for supper though - probably could've been to FlaGriller's house and back in an hour and a half

BTW, rep points from me going out to all that attended - well earned and well deserved!

You should not have to cook again for a month. LOL

Thanks again for hosting it, Jim. We would have never gotten it going if you did not step up. I forgot to even look at what pics I took. I know it was not many, I will try to check them out tonight and get them posted.

Tonight and the rest of the week I would guess ;)

Man... what a thread!! You guys demonstrated the whole reason why this site exists.. friends, food and good times, in spades. Where's that jealous icon... ;{)

 

[fatback joe]

I pulled my smoker up to Michigan this summer......I can do it again.

 

[flagriller]

I agree. Just a great time and very relaxing.

And no problem hosting, next year, or sooner bigger! I have the room.

Grin...we can do ABTs while the Beast gets 10 butts and 30 slabs done ;{)

Wheee!
