Sunday, May 17th, Time for grillin'

Since the middle of last summer, we have had issues with our grill. After I got the tank refilled, it never worked again.
This year, we had to fix it, because a new grill in the size we would want is about $500.00 on the low end and we can't do that right now. We got the tank filled and found out that the tank attachment has changed, so Chuck had to work on that part. After that was in order, he opened it and about half of the "flavor bars" had rusted and broken. So we were on a quest for those. The interesting part is that the size we need are not easy to find because this grill is about 12 years old. Yesterday, he found them at the "Big" Ace here in Round Lake.
So for about $120.00, we have a functional grill, which isn't pretty, shiny and new, but it works and tonight we had our first grilled meal:Steak, baked potato, garlic bread, and salad. It was divine. Looking forward to some great meals this summer.
