From trash to barbecue

There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all. -Peter Drucker, management consultant, professor, and writer (19 Nov 1909-2005)

--------------------


Closest to home, a bear got into the non-bear-proof bins of garbage...some new person to our garbage system didn't know to use the bear-proof bins for food stuffs. But wait, that second bin that's tumped on its side is one of the newer bear-proof bins...but it needs to be closed securely for the latches to work.



My friend, Tim drove my old heavy TV to the "Hard to Recycle" site in Candler on Saturday.
Just look at all those styrofoam things!  And there was a truck trailer full also.
I also took my old VCR player, and the guy asked did it work? I said maybe. He said he'd sold one to someone for major bucks! I remembered later that I couldn't get it to do much in its later days.


Then off we went to visit an old friend, Doc Brown, at his barbecue place. Oh what a lot of wonderful choices there were (but few for vegetarians, just all those sides.) I tried chicken salad, Lexington Slaw (didn't like it) and of course baked beans. The corn bread was delicious! Tim enjoyed pulled pork and mac and cheese, which Doc Brown is famous for.

Though we sat near the highway, at least we could sit without masks while eating! We were cautious when driving to wear masks...we've both been around some different people lately and wanted to be sure to not pass along anything.
