And that can be the challenge- assemble the grill for food

But will be a fun event between the hurricane force windstorms we've been having ^ Thanks for putting this together.

Agreed - Thanks or hosting. ^

It looks like this pattern might break up in the next few days. Then again any weather forecast greater than +48 in this area is really just a shot in the dark

What shall me and my +1 bring? Salad, beer, dessert, excess flood water from the valley? Please let me know.

Fireworks?

You are a bit closer to AK's IAH then most of us

I think I'll end up with a nice sweet treat myself. With the current crowd we may not even have leftovers :-:

Grill is ~80% assembled now. Completion was hampered only by darkness and rain.

Not sure if that's a good idea. I noticed there are a couple of LEOs living within a few blocks.

Right now the forecast says sunshine for Friday. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed...

If you'd like to bring something, anything you mentioned would be great. (Well, aside from the surplus water.) Maybe a side dish or dessert?

Thanks!

If I brought fireworks AND donuts, we'd be good then, right?

Just sent out PM's with address info.

I realized today that sunset is getting earlier and earlier, so am thinking we could start a little earlier if people want. Perhaps 5 or 6?
