    One KJ innovation is their wood safe cooking system. 

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    Yes, it is a Vision, purchased at Sam's a couple of years ago.

    I almost pulled the trigger on a Costco grill last summer. I thought it was a pit boss. Had the nest and plate setter and the same size as a large for $350.00 but I held out and eventually found my large BGE. Looked like a good setup though

    He's facetiously suggesting that we're BGE snobs here.

    Oh, well that just went right over my head. OK, the real egg is in the carport, where I roll it out to the driveway. Here is a photo from last spring. I built the table. Think it turned out OK for a first time effort. 
    The Vision is on the deck, the egg in the carport. I have to keep them separate as the egg gets jealous at all the time I spend with the Vision.

    Great table.

    My wife (no kids here, I am all the kid we can afford) and I have been going to Walt Disney World once or twice per year for about 33 years now. We enjoy it and I am making up for having never went as a kid myself.
    While we enjoy all four WDW theme parks, we prefer EPCOT. To me, EPCOT is best.

    Here is the table during construction. As you can tell, it is a bit overbuilt, but sturdy.

    @jeffwit, I was a good 5" taller than the other guys during that time period (87-90) so if Goofy looked surprisingly large to you, it was probably me.

    On the other hand if you saw Goofy do a barrel roll or a flip on a kneeboard or anything more complicated than skiing backwards (like flying wake 360s) on skis then it was a buddy of mine who went on to be a Hollywood stunt man.

    I worked at the Magic Kingdom for 11 years.  Once I got to legal drinking age I seemed enjoy EPCOT best as well.  

    If you ever saw Br'er Bear breakdancing in the parade it was me.  And if you saw Goofy on water skis in the late 1980's there's a 50% chance it was me.

    That is cool. Bet you have some great memories. I'm guessing we saw your Goofy multiple times.
    Our WDW trips have changed over the years. We now spend much more time at the resort and poolside than in the parks. We enjoy staying at different resorts and trying different restaurants. We also stay offsite some and enjoy SeaWorld and Universal too.
    Favorite resort - Wilderness Lodge. Favorite restaurant - Sanaa.

    @thetrim, I sincerely apologize.  I guess I was feeling down because somebody pointed out to me that cazzy isn't real and I just felt like dragging the rest of you down with me.

    I'll try not to let it happen again.

    Hopefully, the Easter Bunny will be good to you this year.

    A place where one can believe in the Easter Bunny.  Or cazzy.
