Good Morning.
It’s 74 and going to top 90 today. Dew point is 68 now, so it’s nor quite as sticky as the last few days. No measurable rain in the forecast.
Yesterday was largely inside, spent the morning with a pile of blueprints doing the heat load calculations for my buddy. After lunch went to BJ’s with my wife. After discovering that they apparently discontinued Coke products, specifically Diet Coke, we decided that we are going to give Costco a try, BJ’s selection seems to be slipping. What are your thoughts about the comparison?
Today will likely start with breakfast with the professor, then I might prep the next load for the smoker. I want to make burgers with chopped onions and seasoning with cheese imbedded in them and topped with a lattice of bacon. Run the smoker at 250 and let them get to an internal temp of 170, probably a couple hours. I’ll have to round up some volunteers to eat them as there’s only the two of us, but that usually isn’t difficult.
I still have some sorting and packing to do getting ready for next Saturday. I’ve got to review and possibly tweak the scenes stored in the mixer, should be one for this exact band and outdoor venue, which makes it much easier.
LS, I’m sorry to hear about your friend, it’s never easy to lose someone close to you, especially unexpectedly. I don’t think that the general public has any idea what risks first responders take every day. EMS helicopter service is probably the most dangerous job in aviation due to a lot of factors, mostly centered around the urgency of the mission.
