    If you decide to come up Tspud1, I would love to purchase a Blackstone top or two.

    Weather is lining up Pete.
    No rain, but HAF.
    I will have to adjust.....by cracking my first beer at 0800, vs 1000.  Gotta stay hydrated.  =)

    Pete,
    I'll be there in spirit and I'll tip a brewski or four in your honor!

    You might want to forewarn the eggers who set up on each side of @Focker that "table space encroachment" is just part of that boy's make up and not to be offended. Plus the pay back is having first shot at the great things he will be serving so pay back is immediate!

    Depending on his placement, he might have his hands full. There will be a couple characters other than Brandon showing off their wares. 

    There is no doubt we will throw back a few with you in spirit.

    9-2. I’m sure we will be there @7AM setting up and usually rambles on for a few hours after. Have to shut down to try and get the eggs cooled a bit. 

    Hope you can make it!

    Wife made me wear my black T-shirt! She said she asked others to do it so I had better! As usual, I complied.

    Way to bring it home @pgprescott.  Looks like a great event, exceptional groceries and fun time for all who were fortunate enough to attend.  
    Now for a few glasses of brown water and a cleansing cigar.  
    Most excellent-

    Glad to see the weather cooperated (at least rainwise).

    Lots of Cubs gear. We allowed the Cardinals riff raff to participate as well though. Turns out they ain’t half bad other than their choice in teams. LOL!
