my count is 6 or 7 a few down from last year.  :doah: i have contacted grute and he is out of town for awhile on a job so he wont be able to make it. i have a whole box of chips donated for the shoot from the church i work at, they just regular chips but there free  :king: so someone else needs to be our grillman.

the rain went from a 50% chance to a 30% chance so thats a good thing and the weather went from the 40's to the high 50's low 60's so it looks like it will be a decent day out!! :happybounce: :happybounce: :happybounce:
