It’s a Saturday night in rural Douglas County, and one of my neighbors is really getting in to celebrating the Memorial Day weekend… and the bass is thumping.
I had a pretty active day, for the first day of vacation. I spoke with an old, dear friend who has been going through a rough time over the last year, losing her step son last year and her husband earlier this year. It’s been awhile (25 plus years?) since we’ve even been in the same room together. I extended an offer to her that she should come visit, get away for a bit, and maybe enjoy a change of scenery. She took me up on my (our) offer and is coming up for a visit on Monday.
After that conversation, I started getting some things done around the house, and with the holiday weekend, I decided to smoke some meat this weekend as part of our holiday weekend, and I knew my smoker could use a good cleaning. I had recently picked up some wire brushes to fit in one of my rotary tools. Surprisingly, I tried two different tools to see if there was a decent fit, and the stem on the brush was either too big on one, and two small for the other. Finally, I grabbed a Bosh drill/rotary tool combo and got to work on the scale that had built up on my smoker. I was pretty pleased with the result, and that tool combination was very effective. Dane suggested that next time I could just go straight to angle grinder, and I must admit, that could be a very effective mechanism for cleaning my smoker, that I affectionately refer to as “Joe”. It’s an Oklahoma Joe’s Highland Smoker with an offset firebox.
After cleaning the smoker, I spent a couple of hours on the mower. I still have a lot more to do, but I got a start on it today.
And then I started to feel my age. I got cleaned up. I relaxed a bit this afternoon, though. Tonight we had a very nice dinner, and Lisa tried a new recipe that turned out very good – I think it was called “Chicken Divan”?

I hope I picked a decent rub for it. It had a good combination of spices, but I think I would’ve gone with a little more spice if I had designed it.
Oh… I picked up some pepper seeds today, too. Muahaha.
OK, the puppy is demanding I pay attention to him, so I need to wrap this up.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
