Proverb of the Day #87

This is what I have observed to be good: that it is appropriate for a person to eat, to drink and to find satisfaction in their toilsome labor under the sun during the few days of life God has given them–for this is their lot.

Moreover, when God gives someone wealth and possessions, and the ability to enjoy them, to accept their lot and be happy in their toil–this is a gift of God.   Ecclesiastes 5:18-19

I Just Trash Picked Another Weber Grill!

It does needs a bit of work (the right hood casting (where the thermometer is) needs to be replaced. It’s heavy and was tough to drag home. Luckily, it was just on the other side of our block!

It’s actually a nicer model than the our current Weber which I trash picked 3 years ago (see below) — It’s a Genesis Gold vs our Genesis Silver; it has 3 burners instead of 2, a stainless steel hood and an extra work shelf.

I promise you an article on trash picking real soon. And Trash Pick of the Day postings, once the Proverb of the Day postings conclude. Meanwhile: keep a lookout. You never know what might be out lurking by the curb…

Cheers, Paul
