The Northern Edge 49° 59

Hi Tony.Your wife shouldn't have to walk further.LOL :)

sounds like you had a nice weekend. Good for you. Been chilly here but not too bad, temps have still been in the 50s but sure would like to see some high 60s low 70s soon.

Have a great Monday....

BBQ! If it's not raining or snowing, there is always a good time to BBQ.

Good Afternoon, Tony!

How great that you've finally received good enough weather to begin barbequing again! I must warn, however, in spite of charcoal grilling making foods seemingly taste better, it actually produces more carcinogens or risks to one's food and atmosphere. If you're able, it would be much safer to use a propane gas grill for outdoor cooking. Believe me, there are still safer ways to make your meats taste equally terrific! Just experiment with various sorts of delicious safe marinades or herbs.

We just had a drenching Nor'easter pass through here overnight into this am. Altogether, my area received 2.10 inches of rainfall. Everything now looks so lush and green, plus, our pollen count is practically nil at 1.10 out of 12.00. Last week's 11.80 out of 12.00 certainly gave our eyes and noses more than a run for the tissues.

Glad that May is just around the corner and, hopefully, with it, better weather and outdoor experiences for all. This last week of April, in Mass., is ending on a gloomier and more seasonably chilly note.

Raining or snowing is not a good enough excuse not to if you want to BBQ badly enough, lol!

Ah ha, caught you sleeping in again or sneaking in a quickie....LOL Hey old man, time to put up a new blog. Windy, sunny and cool here today but still like most Spring days of yore. Will be happy to see May and warmer temps sail in. Have a great day you old fart.....

BBQ! If I had some pecan chips I'd send you some - best flavor in the world. All that convenience of propane never makes up for the taste of real BBQ or smoking. If we're going to use propane, might as well use the George Foreman. ;)

Of course, propane's the only answer on a boat - that's where I had most of my experience with it. Still like the old-fashioned way best.
