Due to the lack of rain in the PNW, BBQ's in central Washington have been banned since early June. It is bone dry tinder out here and most fireworks shows were cancelled in the area for the Fourth of July. Did anyone BBQ over the holiday or have a nice fireworks display to share? Thank you....

Here in western Washington we barbecued burgers, sausage and shrimp and were kept awake all night by fireworks. If I lived in a place where those things could not occur, I would have to move. Just knowing it's happening a few miles to the east is fairly unbearable.

First year in ten I've debated relocation. The east slope of the Cascades is a beautiful place, but 3 weeks of 100+ heat in the early summer, and haze of smoke from nearby fires is almost suffocating. A neighbor joked he was smoking salmon by hanging it out the window for 4 hours.

Some BBQ'd burgers, sausage, and shrimp sounds pretty darn good right now. Heck, I'd take a grill full of veggies....
