Another cool night great for sleeping 43 f at 5 am , fired up our Mr. Heater and soon comfy and cozy inside. When the sun came up I headed out to get a few laps of the campground By the end of the day got 4 miles done, only 3.5 miles yesterday , Working off our Thanksgiving dinner from yesterday.
Noticed a fellow blogger and rv'er in the park Scot and his family that we met at Elephant Butte State Park Their Blog is Living Large in the North. They are a young family from Western Canada with 7 children all being home schooled. And enjoying exploring the southwest for the winter months. He was at the laundry working on this for all 9 of them, a long process it was but he did get it all done.
We have no plans today not wanting to get into Black Friday traffic and crowds etc.. so just enjoyed this amazing weather. I just whipped around the corner to check this rv place for parts that we do not need, and loved this truck below they had on their lot.

Where have we been this winter ?
I would never think to put wood chips in with it but I'll be keeping that in mind. Good idea that I realize has been around a long time, my blonde roots don't allow me to think that way I guess.
ReplyDeleteThe wood chops add a nice smokey smell to cooking on a gas grill. and a bit more flavour to the food as well.
DeleteI always love the innovative ways you use your Q. I need to build a windscreen for mine.
ReplyDeleteThe wind screen sure does help, mine folds flat for storage and is very handy yo have.
DeleteOld vehicle is a circa 1924 Model T which has had a delivery box added.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill I thought maybe it was something like that, you would know for sure.
DeleteSounds like another lovely day enjoying the warmth of the southwest. The blue skies look beautiful in the pictures you posted today and yesterday.
ReplyDeleteIt sure was and excellent day and the cleat blue skies amazing.
DeleteThat chicken looked cooked to perfection and I could almost taste it.
ReplyDeleteOn a different note, the weather out there is almost perfect...cool weather for sleeping at night and warm days to enjoy outdoors.
The chicken always turns out wonderful on our Weber Q. The weather in the southwest is what we love and why we keep coming back.
DeleteNothing better than BBQ chicken. I find the wood chips add to the smoke flavor more in turkey than chicken though. Probably the different spices or rubs used.
ReplyDeleteYou are right depends of the seasoning, but still love our chicken on the Q.
DeleteDinner looks wonderful as usual. Loving this weather.
ReplyDeleteTake care, be safe
Deb
Thanks Deb is sure was tasty.
DeleteYou are right. The weather sure is nice around here!
ReplyDeleteSure can't beat it that's for sure.
DeleteOkay ... I'm going to the store for a chicken. I'll try it out here at home before I hit the road. I love how you guys can just relax, read a book or do nothing. I'm going to try and follow your lead!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your chicken, I speak it oil spice it the way we like, preheat you Weber q turn to about 1/3rd heat close lid in about an hour check with the meat thermometer should be at least 165-180 check white and dark meat, if not there yet leave for a while longer, Should turn out wonderful, enjoy.
DeleteReading a book and relaxing is what we like to day after usually busy mornings. Our while out supper is cooking on the Weber Q.
another nice day in the neighbourhood. Great to be able to sleep with windows open. It has to be warm for us to do that. :)
ReplyDeleteLife does not get much better than this, that's for sure.
DeleteAnother nice day with a nice looking Thanksgiving dinner.
