OT - What are you doing right now?

My FIL just stopped by (lost his wife of 50 years a few weeks ago) as I was taking a few simple burgers off the egg.  We persuaded him to stay and eat dinner with us.  He stayed and talked for a couple of hours.  It was a nice visit.  They fed me and Mrs. Bucky hundreds of times when we couldn't afford pinto beans.  Nice to repay it a little.

That's so awesome. What resources are you using to learn the process?

That kitchen is hideous.

I just saw on the news that it’s Tyler Perry’s place.

Beautiful cook Carrie.  Potato crust is special.   Looks fantastic.

Very nice @nolaegghead

Great cook.  For those wanting to now move to Nola's neighborhood, I suggest zillow.  There are some great deals.  They'll be selling fast, if he keeps this up.

Realizing I'm running out of time to learn all the things on my list before I kick it.  I suppose that's why they say you'd better enjoy the journey.

Holy cow Mark!  You’ve been doing this for two years and we haven’t seen any of this at Butt Blast?!??

I guess we are going to have to keep inviting you back.

Steamboat Lake. It’s a feeder lake into Leech. I picked up the rice in Cass Lake.

@Sea2Ski looks beautiful.   mine came out a tad salty.  my problem was with the low humidity in the house.  I had that problem and SWMBO whining about the weird meats hanging in the kitchen, esp the pancetta which would occasionally drip fat.

This is what you see in Spain to catch the fat drips.

  Planning to cook this tomorrow, I have been wanting to try it since @bgebrent originally posted! I have been in the combine for days (rained this afternoon) so it was hard to decide between a low and slow tomorrow or this. The halibut was at the top of the pile in the freezer.
  I am going smoke some salmon tomorrow for dip and make the potato halibut dish. 
  Thank you all for new cooking ideas I am not creative however I follow instructions well!

Got to our home base we chose for the Crater Lake climbs and hikes. Did Diamond Peak today.
Saw 5 bald eagles at the cabin where we are staying. Together. 2 just flew over us as I type.
Gray Whales were seen in packs today. We stopped along the coast and watched these magnificent creatures in the clear, cold water off the beach shores.
We drove inland about 200 miles, and not one place, ever did we anything that was not beautiful.
Here is the image I tried to capture with my phone. It is the first of the five that flew away together. At the top of one of the Ponderosa Pines that are generously spotted, surrounding our cabin.

Meanwhile, @YukonRon is on vacay like...

With the sun setting, leaving just its last light, on the William's River, which is the one of the only few places you can, or will, find a Red Ring Rainbow Trout (Don't Ask, I have no clue). We are sitting outside with no lights, watching the fish fly from the water to snag flying insects competing with another insectavor, bats. Very cool.....
