A Cookout and a Poker Game
After much talk and activity we finally decided to host another home poker game for our friends. The guys were really anxious to play, since it had been a while. Without much consideration at all it was decided to turn the event into a cookout also. There is just something about the nice spring weather that makes you want to get together with friends and grill out.
This is where things begin to go sideways. We had not used the gas grill in ages and it had been mostly outside, but under it’s vinyl cover. We still had 2 weeks until the event, so I decided to test the grill and to get the propane bottles refilled. Boy am I glad that there was plenty of time until the poker tournament. The grill needed a couple of parts and it took about a week and a half to get them. Finding the parts online was not too hard after finding a good gas grill parts website. Sure is amazing what you can do with the internet these days.
Anyway, the cookout was a big success and the poker tournament was big fun. So much fun, that we have another one scheduled for next month.
