Saturday BBQ. Smoked some jalapeño poppers, a block of cream cheese, and a pork butt. Also grilled some burgers & hotdogs. Wouldn't be complete without a batch of frozen margs.

I modified part of my fence to help mitigate the backing up of water during flash flooding. You know, so my fence doesn't break and need replacing. Then Mother Nature decided to give her input. 🙃
