Mmmmmmm Bacon. I got in late tonight, long day. My wife and daughter rolled in right behind me and there was the grocery bag with a nice big pkg of BACON!

It shall be sizzling in the pan at 0530.

Night all

 

Evenin' All!

Been a bit since I dropped by but I found my way back by the smell.... It hasn't changed much.

Been downright busy the last few weeks. OT, kids and a mile long summertime honey-do list haven't left much spare time. Kids went back to school today. I got one in 4th and 1 in 2nd. I could have swore the both just started kindergarten last year. Time is FLYING!

Finally broke down and fixed the leaky rear mainseal on my truck. That was fun sitting in the driveway. Wouldn't have been too bad but the monsoon raging at the time made it interesting. I could swear it was raining from all directions at once (including from the ground up) several times...... Probably should have used a seal with a speedi sleeve but oh well, it was fun the first time I'm sure that it'll be even better a second if it leaks again. I did drive the seal in just a bit short though just in case. So far, so good.....

Been working the smoker too. seem to be getting pretty good at it . Never much leftovers. I could probably smoke some killer BACON on it........

I'm on nights for the week so keep thew coffee perkin.

 

Dang You Guys!!! I have one three pound package of thick sliced hidden in the freezer. My wife won't be taking her Dad to Anchorage for another 9 days. Now I gotta wait 9 days for Bacon. What you say?? Why wait until she is gone?? Its only three pounds!! Thats not enough to share.

Nice seeing you back ofcmarc. When you get tired of that good deal smoker send it my way.

 

Go ahead and hold your breath, It's on it's way........

 

Dayshift is in, nightshift can go home. Coffee's making funny noises.
