Hello there.
Well here it is the big day, the final day and judging of The Jack.
Yesterday, where do I start, when we left the hotel it was raining and rained until aprox 3 pm in the afternoon.
BBQ comps and rain are not any fun, trust me. We were on somewhat low ground and talk about being in a lake.
Brian, Craig and John from Strobes, aka Big Sid's BBQ in Brantford arrived bright and early as they are very supportive of us and are here to help and support us this weekend.
These guys are one of a kind and are very special to us.
Around our site we had hale bails as part of site so the guys broke down a few of them to help sop up the water.
I really wish I could get some pics up but as I mentioned yesterday I'm still having problems with the server here at the hotel and I just have not had the time to call and have them put a boost on.
4:00 pm was the time for the Teams to parade around Lynchburg Square. That was an amazing as John and I were proudly carrying the Canadian Flags with Craig, John and Lexi holding the banner, Danielle, Vlado and Gary (our corporate sponsor from Traeger Canada) in between us.
I had another great guy Tboar from Simcoe Country Smokers taking pics for me until my batteries died, argggggg, then he was using Craigs camera which I will upload the pics from the my puter hopefuly tonight.
After the parade it was time for dinner on the hill, a small bus ride to the top on the hills here in Lynchburg.
The dinner was fine but the Lynchburg Lemonade was even better as they spike it with Jack.
The view on the hill is spectacular as well.
John and I got back to the hotel around 10 pm and its time to crash, we have Lexi with us as this will enable Danielle and Vlado to stay on site to do the overnight cook.
It's almost time for me to grab my shower then get John and Lexi up so we can head on back to our site.
Today is the turn in for all the catagories then the judging at 5 pm.
Wish us luck.
Pretty much of the day was doing prep work, getting dessert ready and trying to keep dry.
