    Yikes-Be Careful

    Cold day this spring I noticed something on the living rm floor - it was a garter snake. Most likely came in where we had a piece of weather strip missing on the storm door. I slowly picked it up and took it to show my wife. My ears were ringing from the scream :) and the dogs came running to...

    Confession Time!

    Was pumping to waste to remove a few inches after heavy rain. Wife asked me a question. I couldn't hear so walked ~75ft to where she was. Then got distracted and went back to my office. Hour or so later looked out at the pool and the water was below the skimmer and the pump was running dry... :oops:

    I did have the skin on but I had the temp @ 400F recommended by Chef Greg. They were very crispy and great tasting. I saw other postings where people experienced the rubbery skin at lower temps. I think over at amazingribs Meathead recommends 325 for poultry on the smoker.

    Thanks, Brent. I don't do FB but am getting a kick out of the RT youtube channel with Chef Greg, John and Jody. I seasoned the 590 with chicken thighs on Sunday (amazing) and am plotting my next cook!

    What does your pool paradise look like?

    No. We just mow a few swipes with the discharge pointed away from the pool. White pine needles on the other hand... I'm seriously considering cutting those down!

    Golden Retriever Is Here

    And Goldens make great therapy dogs. My wife founded this 17 yrs ago! KPETS very rewarding to share your dog (or cat, mini horse, rabbit....) with people that need a little heart warming visit. I'm sure you can find a good organization in your area if interested and when the time comes...

    Golden Retriever Is Here

    Very good advice. And you MUST let that dog swim. We built our pool FOR the Goldens! Swimming is some of the best exercise you can give them. Don't worry about the liner trim the nails. And also a crate is Not an off / on switch for their potty needs when they are that young. See potty...
