4th of July - bye week

I'm not sure the timing of the bye week is going to work in Roll'ems favor as we seemed to be finding our mojo the last couple weeks. 

We had a very nice and luckily mostly uneventful Fourth of July weekend.  The Glue fixed some wings Friday which were great as always.  Somehow our "entertainment" for the evening managed to narrowly escape burning our neighbors house down.  After a laid back Saturday we went to Mases Place on Sunday just ahead of a monsoon rainstorm.  Neat place with a nice deck.  We both had the fish was pretty good but the highlight was their BBQ sauces. They had two kinds both of which were real good but mixed together was the best.  On Monday I fought the rain to cook some ribs, sausage and armadillo eggs.  I cooked three baby backs and for a change did a St. Louis cut spare rib.  I prefer baby backs but the spare really surprised me with how good it turned out.  We finished out the extended weekend by watching the fireworks from Riverside Park from across the street.  Another really nice show to cap a nice weekend.
