Getting even closer now Bill. Sounds like it's gonna be a great event!!!!

 

[mrgrumpy]

I will make you a deal....

Bill

 

[tonto1117]

LOL.....If you place with your chicken I just might do that

Then take it to my lab and decode the recipe

 

[mrgrumpy]

Well, it that is the way your going to be, I will make sure I throw in some extra stuff just for you.....

Bill

 

[mrgrumpy]

Hard to believe that in 1 week I will be all but packed and ready to pull out. I called in my meat order yesterday. Picked up another 50lbs of RO lump, lots of hickory for someone to split....

. I have most all of my utensils already in the totes, and ready to go. I have to put a set of wheels on the #2 CG and it will be ready. Overall, I am all but ready.

I just looked at weather.com, and it is looking like good weather. Lows 53 and 53, highs 69 and 70. Should be great cooking weather.

Just be ready, after I get back, and get the film developed, I will post the pics....

Bill -

I think we're almost as excited for you to get back and show us pix as you are about going!

 

[mrgrumpy]

All cookers, "cleaned" and prepped to go.
Pick up trailer tomorrow.
Meat is ordered. Pick up Thursday.
Pack trailer Thursday.
Truck body work appraisal done.
Body shop appointment made.
Rental car reserved.
Ready to go.

I had a little run in with a comacozi deer this morning on the way to work today. The deer lost, the truck lost, we are ok. A deer has no chance with the left front corner of a full size pickup going 55 mph. She died instantly. Internals destroyed. So, left her laying there after the HP got done with his report etc.

I took the day off, so got all of the insurance stuff done, and the body shop is ready for my to drop it off on Monday after I get back from Norfolk. I told them I needed it this weekend unless they would provide me with one. No can do..... just a rental car.... unless I pay the difference....

So, we are ready to roll. See ya all there.

Bill

[tonto1117]

TWO DAYS
and
counting

 

[mrgrumpy]

Thanks Debi.

Theresa, did you get your book yet?

Dawg.... in 2 days, the smokers will be rocking..... I have started packing the trailer. I hope the rain holds off.....

I have a TON to do tomorrow, and will be extremely busy. At noon, I go to pick up the meat, pick up the wife from work at 2:30, then go to the store for the last minute stuff.

So, the morning is going to be a lot busy.

I have snackage ready.... Got chips, crackers, cheese, grapes, tea, gatorade, etc....... lamb chops, taters, onions, oh yeah, got to go get the sausage season in the box for the fatties.... (I make my own).

So, don't expect much from me for a few days.....

And as Arnold once said, "I'll be back..."

Bill

 

[mrgrumpy]

Time to take a very quick break. I am almost half packed.

The morning is flying by so quickly. In a short 24 hrs from now, I should be well on the way. My partner in crime, Dawgwhat, is going to meet me there after he gets off work. (Hope he takes the time for a shower first)...

The other guy isn't going to be able to make it. He had a death in his family out of state, and won't be around. So, we will just hunker down and get 'r done.....

So, until I get back, have fun, cook lots, think abt me, and don't do anything I wouldn't....

Bill

 

[tonto1117]

Hiya Bill, yes I got the book and love it!! We'll chat when you get back and have some time. Had my days mixed up when I posted yesterday(thought it was thursday already

) soooo.... Try and get some sleep tonight so your ready to rock n roll. Are you all packed up yet??

 

[mrgrumpy]

All packed but the last minute stuff....

Theresa, ignore part of that pm I sent since you got the book.

I will touch base when I get back if you don't make it.

Bill

 

[tonto1117]

Yeah, I also forgot to tell you that origanaly we were going to leave today to start the trip down to Goergia, but when I added a chargriller to the smoker it pushed it up a week. Sorry we won't be there to say hello,but I'll be thinking about you!!
