Two Rules For Success

       
 
 
 

        So last weeksend we found an amazing deal on a big ol honkin' BBQ grill at a garage sale and soon made it ours.   We had access to a nice one, a few months ago, but it belonged to the mother in law, AKA The Devil, and when we finally convinced her to leave-with the help of angry dogs, chickens, and the police, she took her BBQ with her.  I have long ago been banned from actual cooking in our house.  Something about making lumpy tomato soup one day while my wife was sick.  Now if my wife sees me going toward the kitchen, she steps in front of me and has me go watch TV or something equally important.  Maybe next time she is sick, I will take the soup out of the can, before I cook it.   For better or worse I am always allowed to BBQ --just not while standing in the kitchen.   Maybe I should try to cook the soup on the BBQ!?  I can tell you the spaghetti noodles fall through the grill.  Any case the other day we tested out the BBQ to make sure it made good food.   It does!  



Getting close to done.
This grill is big enough to cook half a cow at a time
or any medium sized dogs.
 
 

   Deciding what kind of sauce to use.
We eventually decided on     Both!
My helper.
 
  Also notice how nice it is outside!    I do believe I sun burned my face a little bit on this day.  I have BBQ'd in all kinds of winter weather, from snow storms to dumping down rain, but I have to say this is the best winter back drop for making a meal in your short sleeves and enjoying some adult beverages. 
 


Our youngest waiting for the grub!
 
We have a large covered car port and at the moment it is full of items we have up for sale.
We have enough stuff at the moment to set up a well furnished bachelor pad at the moment. 
 
 
 
 
And just a little more of the non ending saga of my mother in law---
Sadly it is still a better story than the Twilight series.
I swear it will never end. 
And although it fills lots of status on Facebook, and sections of this very blog,
the fun really never does start with this crap.  
 
So just recently we got a restraining order against my mother-n-law AKA The Devil--because we were sick of alllll of the crap and her attempts to contact us--Today she contacted the police-because we r having random people harass her, I think most people call them telemarketers... I so hope for laughs galore, she attempts to protest our restraining order in court next!
 
 



 
I am not sure what this sign even means.
But don't do it!!
 
 
 
 
 
  That's funny right there, no matter what part of the evolution line you are in. 
 
 
 
 
And I really really like his sign!
 
And the look on his face.
 
 
 
With tax season right around the corner,
here is the new EZ form....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


   Were are you Exploring this weeksend?   We are still deciding.   I have a little work once I drag myself out of bed tomorrow, but with Mr Luther King day, we have a long weekend, and getting the kids out of the house is essential for mommy's health.   Just above is myself Exploring Sheridan, Wyoming, with my new buddy that I had just taught to sit.   It's hard to believe that was shot in "09"

10/20/2010




       As we get ever closer to Halloween, I still do not know if I will be spending the night at work or at leisure, with our three kids, terrorizing the fair city of Fairhaven.  Some people might say, I am always wearing my Halloween mask!  I am trying to hold off buying my costume, until I know if I will be at work or not.  There are so many costumes that just are not appropriate while serving food somehow.  I did not ask for the night off, but it is my usual night off from work.  Sadly the newest work schedule, only posts what we work through the 28th of October, not helpful.   I hope to get some pictures at the Bay View Cemetery before Halloween.  With some gloomy shots to add to the days creepiness.  This should be easy to accomplish with the great weather turning to gray and rain.  I have been greatly slacking on taking pictures though.  And making new posts on both of my blogs.   Some how I don't feel like posting when I get off work at midnight.   Hopefully this will change soon. 

 Until I get motivated, please check out and share other posts in this blog series.  There are now over 300 to roam through.   And my newest blog series is always itching for new readers----
http://exploreb-ham.blogspot.com/       Enjoy ;)

 
 
  This time of year you really do not have to ask what the weather will be like in the Great North West.  If you do ---you are new to the area and do not yet have your webbed feet!  You probably also carry an umbrella around.  True residents do not ever carry umbrella's.  I grew up in Wyoming were the report just says snow every day for about six months.   So compared rain is awesome!  If you are new to the North West above is the weather report from about October till May or so.
 
 
 
Don't forget your rubbers when it's wet.
 
     What surprises me is how few people can drive when it is raining.   The other day everyone seemed to be going 45 MPH down I-5.  Except for the Canadians who were either driving 25 MPH or 88, Aye!   The first storm of the season washes around all of the oils and such on the roads, and it really is slick, but after that it is just rain folks.   Get used to it before the "snow" hits.   I put snow in comas, because we never really see that much snow here.
 
    One can still accomplish some great hikes in the rain.   You just have to be prepared to come home soaked and watch your footing on the trail!
 
  
   
    October also bring my wife and I to 7 years of knowing each other.  This is beyond a long time.   And even through the really bad times, I am thankful every day to wake up by her side.  Or at least in the same house, when we are fighting, and someone gets the couch.   I love her more every day  and fall in love with her again each and every day.   But that is the way it's supposed to be.   Hopefully she can say the same.   More about our "anniversary" adventures very soon.  
 
**"The coffee is not kickin' in--hopefully it will before work!"**
 
Forget Starbucks, this is were I want to buy my coffee!!
 
 
Deep or not even close?

    I have talked about the Aztec calender and how we are all supposed to die this December before.  What gets to me is how this was brought up alllll the time last year, and now that we are very close to the date--we never hear anything about our fate.   Since the end *Dec 22nd* is just before Christmas, I would like to know more ---because why waste all of that cash on presents, if we will not be alive to open them on Christmas day?  
 
 
 
                                                    And lastly almost on topic.....
                                    You could enjoy some great fruit punch at the same time!
