    See, now that sounds good, Bill. Please tell me there's pork involved.

    couple pounds of ground pork usually... although, since I've started smoking again, I think some smoked and pulled would be interesting... will have to play around with that in a couple weeks when the in-laws are here... gonna be a long 6 weeks, so that will give me an excuse to sit outside in the cold and monitor the smoker... even though it's an electric and I have remote therms... LOL

    Radar shows most of the rain has passed - at least for a while...

    Not as worried about the rain as I am the winds, its positioned so that the winds push the water right up into my canal system. They can handle an unlimited amount of rain (just flushes out to see) but if the winds bottle them up, its bad news.

    Good to hear bro. Now is some of the water can drain to sea, it would really help.

    I'll tell ya, scores upon scores of thousands of gallons have already drained. This morning the road I live on had just enough water to make my brakes steam when they got wet...

    about 3 hours later, I checked again (just a few minutes ago) and there was no standing water (outside of a few potholes) in the road... So its definitely draining. I just hope the winds don't stop up the bathtub again.

    THey're saying we've gotten 10+ inches of rain so far today... had a couple yesterday and about an inch on Friday... hopefully it will stop raining and start drying soon...

Happy National Yo-Yo Day. It's been a little bit since I've been on here. I hope everyone is doing well these days.

what chilies to combine to make a blend that combines instant heat and long lasting heat with a good taste?
