Where'd you get the wood for the deck Rick? Our utility trailer has a couple of boards that developed a nasty curl, and need to be replaced RSN. The boards that are in it look like full dimension, which is kind of hard to find these days...

A neighbor gave them to us. He was going to use them to build his garage but ended up having a metal building installed. I think he bought them when he was still living in the bay area. Not sure though. Real nice pressure treated 20 foot 2"x12"s though. I'll ask him where they came from.

Rib cook-off in Sparks, NV
I ducked out to go to the Best of the West cook-off on Monday.
Rode the bus up, stayed the night at Harrah's in Reno, rode AMTRAK back.
Headed up to the summit, the bus got passed by a Ford truck with a Nevada license plate "TOMAHWK"... I couldn't help but wonder if it was our own Tomahawk... probably not
Got to the cook-off and found the Back Forty Texas BBQ booth... used my pass to sit in the VIP area... all the free food I could eat... BBQ-ed ribs taste better when you rub them all over your face
The Back Forty cooked more than 11,000 pounds of meat on Monday... I'm not even close to their league... bought one of their T-shirts; on the back it says "We smoke the good stuff on Sunday" 
I'd love to compete there, but I think it would take about $100,000 worth of equipment... c'est la vie
