    Leaving fire box  door cracked, temp is running 275-300 and I'm not running water.... my fault being stubborn temp would be lower if I did.

    but I'm keeping the smoke nice and light blue for now so we will see. I've seen @Lit say it has been done and he's had great results.

    I picked up a good chunk of wood today from a local source so worth a try at least.

    How did they come out? 275-300 with no water is hard to do running straight wood.

    Yep. UNC NC State. Aside from the first inning, a pretty good game.

    Really upset.  I thought Cracker Barrel was open 24/7.  Now what am I supposed to do.

    Went home :(  It was a travesty.  Almost went to IHOP, but they keep it like an icebox so I opted to just go hungry.

    Sure wished you had time to stop in. Did two tenderloins,just in case. Have plenty leftover for sammies. I am hoping you all had a great time. Safe travels back home. Great looking bunch of baseball gentlemen you have there.

    First time trying this particular recipe.  It uses way more eggs than the chocolate one.  We'll see how they turn out, but I'm planning on topping them with a raspberry glaze.

    Happy to have a garden again after the move last year. Finished for now - until the peas, spinach, lettuce, and garlic are done. Then the fall round will go in!

    Herbs close to the house and egg

    Time for a cold beer!
    Wow! I'm jeally!

    Finishing up hand trenching about a 40 foot section of my backyard to put the irrigation system deeper so I can regrade a section of the yard for better runoff.  Trench is dug, I will glue in pipe in the AM.  Egg is coming to temp to grill a pork tenderloin that has been marinating in jerk rub for 72 hours.

    Suffering the wrath of my kids.  Gave in and took them to Petsmart to check out the adoption dogs.

    They all wanted a little chiweenie puppy.  I had to say no.  They are all giving me the silent treatment.

    You might as well give in and go adopt it.  I didn't want one the little 10 pound yapper, but the wife adopted it anyways.  I had to get a new English Bulldog in order to keep my man card.  The two make quite a pair seeing the bulldog now weights 4 times as much as the mixed miniature poodle mix.  But the wife is happy and we potentially saved a dog's life, so all is well.

    Thanks @pgprescott! It was a long, time consuming, and unexpectedly expensive process...  but Lots of progress in the back in a year - SWMBO and I  very happy here!  (And proud of how all the work turned out) Last spring:
    late summer last year:

    Finally there (garden was last step):

    Not a soul here that wouldn't be proud of that space! Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

    Good luck digging out of the hole.

    If you haven't adopted before it's kinda funny. I had less scrutiny getting a passport. Good grief. Took a week!
