Today is my anniversary. I joined this forum exactly nine years ago on this date in 2011. Teesquare, TMB, and Pam were 1,2, and 3. ACW3 was #11. I was #14. And LostArrow was #15. We all moved over from CharBroil's Sizzle On The Grill forum when it started going away.
I just wanted to thank Tim for his efforts and financial support to keep this great forum moving forward in a positive manner. I have made many friends since 2011. All of the above members met for the first time in Augusta at our first Gathering in Sept. 2011. They have all become close friends. We had Gatherings once a year for 4 years in Augusta at Clark's Hill Lake. Then we moved the Gatherings to Backyard Jack's in Byron, GA where we have 2 cookouts a year. They aren't as big as Augusta but more intimate. Jaxon and Deb are the best hosts and we thank them for opening their home for us to get together.
Then this year happened and we postponed both of our cookouts until next spring. I sure miss seeing everybody. (I don't miss Tim as much because we had lunch together last week. He looks better in a mask.) Now, we are all just waiting for spring to show up so we can meet again. I'm just feeling nostalgia for those happy days.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody.
