As a kid I spent the night before Thanksgiving at my grandparents. She put the turkey in before going to bed & would turn the oven off leaving the bird in there all night. She would turn the oven back on when she got up. It was really, really dry, but I thought it was the best. She would let me...

I’ve got a 5 gallon bucket for brining. Turn a cooler on its end to put the bucket in. Always put in the tub in case the cooler fell over. I’ve never smoked one before, but I would like to. Carrots - I use about 1-2 carrots per person.

Brine the turkey or not? Smoke or roast? Stuffing or dressing? We are roasting. We have brined before but it’s been several years. My side dish I add is Carrots with orange marmalade cooked In Blenheim ginger ale until the liquid has boiled away. Pro tip: don’t breathe in when cooking with...

Early start on Friday, but brought home another state championship.

3:30 am wake up to my State Cross Country meet tomorrow. Kids are excited about the early departure. Lol.

Wind chill in the teens, not sure I can remember that low in mid November. Snow flurries this afternoon. 2 more practices & the State Cross Country meet on Friday. Then I get some time off from coaching for a short time.

Hope everyone enjoys CICO. I’ll be shaping the future of the Palmetto State. Looks like I may get wet at my cross country meet on Saturday.

After a long week of travel and a couple of extra long days on Thursday & Friday at school, I did my best to do little over the weekend. Upcoming week will be a long one too.

Same near me. Most are out of business. US 29 runs from DC to New Orleans and once called the Main St of the South. The interstate killed all of these places.

Back in ‘97 we started for home from Gettysburg late in the afternoonon a Saturday intending to only drive a few hours. No widespread internet then and every where we stopped on I-81 was booked. One chain had a room in Roanoke their sister location. Stupidly, we told them we didn’t want to go...

I’m not surprised he’s a nice guy. I know he does a lot of charity stuff and I’ve heard him in long format interviews where the real person comes out more. He understood the crowd cast him as the “heel” and he played to it rather than fight it. Our seats were right in front of where he parked...

Sitting in a hotel room that smells like mildew wishing I was sleeping in my CI. Our daughter & her boyfriend are with us so that is why aren’t camping. Four in a 560 Ultra is all little tight. We’re all here for the NASCAR race tomorrow night. Stayed in this same place last year for this. On...

We get Half Backs in SC. Go to Florida first & decide halfway back home in the Midwest or Northeast.

The Corgi always wins.

Just came in from playing soccer with the dog. Feels like late September out there.

I don’t recall temps below 60 in August in the Palmetto State, but I’m liking the sound of it. Also, looking forward to the low 80s forecast for the race in Darlington next weekend.

Welcome & congratulations!

Cut the grass once all of July because of no rain. I’ve cut it 3 times in the last 6 days & I should have cut it more than that. Need a happy middle ground.

Looks like when when this updated at some point, the ability to add those in your signature was lost. I went to add the 25k miles & change the total nights and I couldn’t do it. Maybe someone will see this and clarify.

Got our pins put up in the galley from our summer trip to New Mexico plus our 25K miles pin from Camp Inn for all our adventures and excursions.
