I can't believe the pollen here in NC. The air can actually turn green with it. It's crazy.

You have me beet, again.
I'm leaving shortly for Wake Forest to go play guitars for a few hours.
Then reserving a trailer to bring that Smoker home tomorrow. If, I continue to talk myself into spending that much money on one.
I'm actually getting a decent deal at $1100. It still sells for over $1600, and looks new, at least the pictures do, and the guy sounds like he's picky on how everything is taken care of, so I'm sure it's nice.

Well boys............. I've talked myself out of that $1100 smoker. After getting the guy down a couple of hundred buck, it is a good deal. but not the one that I want.
SO. We're gonna buy another inexpensive smoker that'll last anther 2 or 3 years, and I can also get my seals and brakes, and oil change for Ka'Bluey, and still save at least $900

Hey a smoker and brakes while saving money is a good thing.

Took a nice ride this morning to beer army in New Bern, food was good but it was a bit pricey for the portions you got.

Man it sure was a beautiful weekend to sit and drink beer. Drank a bit too much on Saturday and got my self in some trouble with the girl friend, so drank a few more on Sunday since I was already in trouble any way.

Now I just got to get used to the time change. This overcast morning isn't helping my motivation much either...

We went to the race Saturday night cooked hamburgers and hot dogs and set back and I drank 4 or 5 beers. Just enough to loosen up and have a good time.

I took off today and tomorrow for the acdc concert but since it got postponed I'm gonna do some task around the house. Bout to head out to the lawn garden and feed store to pick up some fertilizer, chicken feed and some dog food. Then gonna head to walmart to hit up the pawn shop that I won a $50 gift card too.

Cracked this open this morning...

"We" have agreed that on days that we have plans, I should probably not hit up three different breweries, and then ask her to pick myself and a friend up after she has sat on my front porch waiting for me. I should also give her a key in case I'm not there when she gets there again.

But I'm pretty sure I landed a keeper, so I've got that going for me, which is nice...
