Thanks, everyone! It's been a lazy, do-nothing day more or less. Picked up some ribs and charcoal for tomorrow and did a bit of grocery shopping for Mrs AD. She's managed to crack her tibia at the knee and is pretty much out of commission for a while...

Vacation day today for my b-day, and another one tomorrow for HS graduation for our younger daughter. If all goes well, in another 3 months she'll be headed to K-State and we'll be empty nesters!! I am looking forward to it sooooooo much!! I swear she was vaccinated with a phonograph needle when she was a baby, and hasn't shut up since she learned to talk. We're looking forward to the peace and quiet.

Grilling my cake is one thing. Grilling my beefsteak is something all together different Sounds exceedingly painful!

Happy Birthday ArtistsDad. I am truly happy we met here, my friend.

I'm running late today 'cause I was finishing this up for you.

Happy birthday Artistsdad. No cake, just a small parade.

That is a great-looking brisket! I would love to have one turn out that nice!
