Your apartment building's management doesn't ban charcoal grills with an open flame?

Once you learn how to control the heat and temperature, slow roasting with the right wood will make some of the best meat you've ever tasted.

Any of you guys have any vegan recipes on the grill?

 

No vegan here!

 

Just didn't want to leave anyone out.

 

Yes but as long as there are no complaints the manager turns a blind eye. He did ask me to take down my bird feeder because they were making a mess. But I have a generator on the balcony and put a big radio antenna on the roof and he doesn't care.

That's my next project. I want to go into the woods and 'stealth harvest' some nice firewood and try cooking with that.

 

Or you can just buy the right wood. How much driving and "poaching" are you planning to do, to make that worthwhile? There are cherry farms in The Central Valley, so you can probably ask the farmers to sell or give you wood. Let me know when that great road trip to Washington State will take place. I want to tag along to watch you "stealth harvest" an apple tree off some farmer's property.

I was out on my motorcycle in the middle of nowhere. On the side of the road, on public land side of private property fence line, there was wild fennel. I pulled over to take a leak.....which I probably should not have done.....since my pee technically went over the fence line and on to the private property. This farmer came along on horseback, like John "f-ing" Wayne, to have a word with me. It was a real stand-off. He had a long gun in a scabbard rigged to his saddle. Good thing I wasn't "stealth harvesting" anything. Turns out that he didn't care about me peeing over his fence line. He thought I was some "new age" weirdo, there to harvest the wild fennel. He needed that wild fennel there for his bees. According to the farmers, the "hippies from Santa Cruz" keep "stealing" his fennel. I have a big mouth. "The wild fennel is growing outside of your fence on public land, owned by CalTrans."

I live in Quebec where we have a lot of government owned land and no one's going to miss a few trees.

 

ssshhhhhh

Don't say that too loud.

Environmentalist may be listening.

You know how those tree huggers are. They chain themselves to trees so that loggers can't cut them down.

I say you go cut trees in the winter. If nothing else, it would be funny to see a bunch of Green Peace members chain themselves to trees in the forest, in the middle of winter, in 10 feet of snow.

 

The tree huggers aren't too bad up here (yet). I do little junk removal jobs on the side and when my trailer's full I'll bring it to my sister's farm or my girlfriend's cottage and burn it. Never had any complaints.

 

With all the activism in this part of the world, I'm lucky that I can still get drunk and harass women.

 

By the way, I wouldn't cook any food over that pile of burning junk. It might make your food taste funny.

 

 

He's in Canada. But I don't think that photo was from today. He probably took the picture during the winter.

I will refrain from telling everyone that Canada should be invaded, and annexed, as a U.S. Territory. Puerto Rico, Guam, Samoa, Virgin Islands, Canada. Has a ring to it.

 

But then again, he could be far enough North that he has snow.....

 

It was spring

You don't want Quebec besides all the snow there's still an active terrorist movement.
