    Yes sir. I think we brought 25-30# of sausages and 5# of bacon, along with different brands of hot dogs back home with us 2 yrs ago. Big cooler and a few bags of ice...still frozen when we got here.

    Sorry fellas. Right now it appears I won't be able to make the GTG this year. I had planned all along to go but...plans do not always work out.

    Ok guys and gals, we are less than two weeks away from Hawg Dayz! Is anyone planning on being here Thursday evening? We've been having an impromptu cookout here at the Overkill Estate for the early birds, just putting this out there to see whos.planning on being here that evening so we can figger out what to whip up. As per our past GTGS we will most likely have pizzas in the stone oven on Friday evening unless it's a washout (which we seem to have been getting quite a few of here in the PA mtns this spring), but we will remain optimistic and hope for good weather....

    With an 8hr drive, I expect to arrive at Chez Overkill on Friday, mid-afternoon, As always, traffic is a huge variable.

    I want to and when you asked me to go I was going to talk to her about it, but we have a concert scheduled for Saturday night at Foxwoods. If it was closer I'd come as I hate to pop in then leave. Its six hours one way for me.
