Randy's Dream Come True

As you know, our grill was trashed in the recent storm. We've gone round and round about what a "comparable" grill is, both in our opinion and in the opinion of our insurance company. Today we finally all got on the same page, and Randy has a brand new grill. He's so happy. He has to put it together himself because otherwise we couldn't get it home, but he's actually happy about that (goofy man that he is!). So, very soon, there will be delicious grilled burgers and dogs available at Castle Willett. Yeah!

I went to WalMart today and picked up two of the HD converter boxes. We have cable and expect we will continue to have cable, but come next February, if the cable goes out, we have no TV to even watch the news or weather unless we have a converter box. We also have a trailer that we take camping once in a while, and we will need a converter box for that as well. We thought that since the government is offsetting almost all of the price, we'd go ahead and get them know. I'm glad we did. You can get a coupon for $40 off the price by going here:

After the coupon, each one cost me $13, which includes tax. We just figure that after our recent storm, you never know when you'll be without cable for a week, and it would be hard to keep up with what's happening without a TV. So, now we're all set.

I'll post pictures of the grill as soon as he has it assembled.
