    thanks so much for the hospitality today. It's great meeting everyone and sharing tips, war stories, and most importantly, the food. I'll check with the boss to see about hosting in July and what dates might work. All the food was great....can't get enough of those ABT's.

    Thanks to Doug for hosting our get together. This was our second time out, and it was a great time. We certainly aren't going to let a little rain stop us.

    I look forward to seeing everyone again next month. I like the pizza idea, but am open to whatever or wherever the rest of the gang wants to do.

    I hate that I missed a good time, but I have a honey-do list that I had to work on between downpours before I am out of town for the next 5 days. I thought I would get a chance to come over, but the rain just wouldn't get out of my way.

    Glad you guys had a blast and I will try my best to be at the next shindig - wherever it may be.

    I'll be hosting one here on the NE side before too long, for sure.

    Hey Doug. Sorry to tell you, but I held out on you just a bit. Part of what I prepped got left here. Guess what I just handed the wife on a toothpick? :laugh:
    Good timing too since she did soooo good today.

    I know she will love them :woohoo: I can't wait till she gets home.Really hope she gets home before I eat the rest of them up :woohoo: I enjoyed it though.The good thing is that I got to keep the leftovers(at least most of them) :lol:
  • Doug,
    Had an amazing time, really liked your setup. Hopefully you can incorporate it into your new deck layout when that happens. Thank you for the hospitality and the grid risers. I have been bustin my butt since I got home on this egg, it looks a ton better. I finally broke down and used a flat head, with goo gone, and eventually started using a utility knife. I will post some pics probably tomorrow some time. But I really had a good time, it was nice to see you and Ron again and it was great meeting some of the other NW eggers.
