We dont really have anything planned. I am hoping to finish a few projects I have in my sewing room. I have to work Sunday night, and Monday night so no three day weekeknd for me. I will get paid triple time tho on sunday. I guess that makes it worth it. there is a memorial on Monday morning with the VFW, I will try to stay awake for that. i hate to miss those things.
i dont know how far the news is going, but we have a huge fire going here in California. It started Thursday morning, and is not yet contained. the wind was blowing so hard, there is no way it was gonna get contained. Anyway, it is right in the line of my sisters home. She is gone on vacation, so her daughters went in and got a few things out of the house, just in case. I know Haley lives in the same city as my sisters, I hope her home is ok. So far 17 homes that I know of have burned. One home is too many. It looks like it may rain though, so maybe nature will help put this one out. We havent had the rain we usually get, and this years fire season may be very bad because of it.
Johns Smoker/BBQ was delivered yesterday. it is a Traeger, Lil Tex. he loves it. We have to get Pam spray for grilling, and then we can use it. John seasoned it yesterday by turning it on and letting it smoke/burn with nothing in it for 45 minutes. Here Is a pic of it. Very nice and I have a happy hubby.
Ok, thats it for today. Have a great weekend. I gotta go clean my house.

That is one very fine looking smoker...... I hope the rain comes and puts out the fire. Those California wildfires are the worst, with the winds and the locations they are very hard to fight.
ReplyDeleteIjust noticed the adds on the side of your page are about smoker pellets and barbeque recipes...
ReplyDeleteohhh a very nice smoker! (Hubby looked on with envy and a gleam in his eye. lol) So far I think we are just sticking close to home too. With gas the way it is, most people are...as a matter of fact almost all the campgrounds in our state are booked solid for this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI hope the rains come and hard too...I will say prayers for all the homes in the area! :)
We may head up for the local Memorial Day service on Monday,it holds a special place in my heart.
Have a wonderful weekend, even if ya gotta work. :)
Hot damn...now that is a smoker! Amber lifts lid and sees what Big Johns got cookin!
ReplyDeleteFirst thing I did this morning when I heard about the fires is got on line and checked what area they were in! Naturally, I was worried about my UCB....
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear your sisters house is right in the firing line. I will certainly keep her house in my prayers!
Some good cookin' will come out of that smoker...enjoy. No plans here just staying home and relaxing. Monday I'm going to the Memorial Day ceremony at the National cemetery.
ReplyDeleteBoy! California has had there share of fires this year..I pray they can contain them and everything is alright with your sister's home.
