Well another one in the books!

Well, the kielbasa had been made for the Church picnic. Jody, Joe and Ted got it done last week, but lets just say not without incident. Because of the way everything fell, we were starting a day earlier than we usually do, this I hoped would lessen the confrontation with our friends, because I figured they would be working.

So much for that, we started our fire at 7:00 AM sharp with a bag of charcoal. About a half hour later, we began to stoke the fire with regular wood. Things were going along fine we thought. Joe and I were sitting on the patio waiting for the fire to get hot, when all of the sudden he shouts, there it is, there putting water on our fire!

We jumped out of the patio, and down to the smoker, where sure enough, she is spraying the fence, the plywood I put up to protect the fence, as well as anything else she could spray. She was going on about protecting her fence. We didn't really say anything, but she continued to complain, and then went into the house.

Another hour and again she is at it, this time however Joe was by the fire and he actually got sprayed! He very politely asked her to stop "attacking him with that hose", we continued the whole day in much the same way. We wrapped up smoking about 1:30, with very threatening skies.

Its all finished, but I will tell you this, it is getting old. Can't wait till November! If you need a little excitement in your life please feel free to show up, I will say this it sure is entertaining!

P.S. Did everyone enjoy the rumble this afternoon from the quake. Made me leave the house for a bit, now is when I wish I has a wood house!!!!
