Nice evening last night

[LMichaels]

So yesterday, we had glorious weather here in the Stateline. Low 80s, low humidity. Decided on grilled chicken and some of the outstanding sweet corn we can now get again from a local farm here in Cherry Valley called Blackmer's. This stuff is good beyond description.
Got a few ears in town, stopped at Cattle and Cream got some chicken (also picked up a Snake River Farms Tri Tip all vacuum packed) and some home made Italian sausage (hot and mild).
Pulled the big Wolf out, got the 2 outside burners on either side into a med/high temp, center 2 on low, got my chicky thighs on and wife's boneless breast. Put the corn on right in the husk got that all nicely browned up. Wife took it inside after stripping off the husks and slathered on some Kerry Gold butter.
Meanwhile I brought our smaller TV outside on a stool and we enjoyed the dinner, wine, after dinner B&B dessert and so on. White Sox lost though so we turned on some reruns I recorded. All in all gorgeous night
Note my jelly jar rain gauge on the deck rail

Sounds like a good time! Score one for the good guys!

Looks like it was a great evening Larry. Wish we could get some of that weather here though.

Sounds like a great time Larry! I’m up here in what the Chippewa call ”Boonies” and have very very limited connections with no TV and am perfectly happy.
I will be happy to have my own shower and bed, though.

Looks like a beautiful evening! We’ve only eaten outside one night all summer, just been too damn hot. Today was beautiful but we had a late lunch and skipped dinner.

So you put ice in your "wine"? That looks surprisingly similar to my favorite beverage (sometimes with ice, mostly straight-up).

Everything nice and green...beautiful scenery, Larry.

 

[LMichaels]

That was a Rob Roy. (A Manhattan made with Scotch instead of Bourbon). Never put ice in wine though. If it's meant to be cold it goes in fridge

Looks like a nice time to be had, and hope the Sox win next time!

Very,very nice simple but good meal simple is always good.

It did turn out to be a nice evening, looks like everything is green by you as well. That's awesome you can get local corn. Sometimes the simpe pleasures are the best.
