The annual Memorial Day clean up at Mom's house took place on Sunday, May 29. A BIG thanks to Margaret, Kelly, Kristen, Steve, Chris, Brad, Austin, Megan & Jenna for all their hard work. Because of all the helping hands, the grass got cut, the edges edged, the flowers planted, the grounds were de-weeded, the shrubs all got trimmed, all the landscaping was raked and swept, a new step was installed for the porch, and the pillar on the porch was fixed. The day was highlighted by a top-notch bbq by famous Chef Steve-O on the grill featuring sirloins, brats, corn on the cob, macaroni salad, baked beans, and 3 desserts.

A METRO EDITORIAL
By Larry McCarty My Barbeque Experience I’ve always tried to imitate my brother Steve’s flare at the barbeque grill … but always seem to come up short. This year though, my barbeque really has a great charred, smoky taste … that’s because I’m using the wood from my deck that burned down during last year’s Memorial Day barbeque. I barbequed this past weekend, but it wasn’t such a big deal … only two alarms. I started out barbequing a chicken and by the time I finished, I also barbequed a basting brush and two Betty Crocker oven mitts. Rare, medium, well done … it doesn’t matter. I’ve got all three types of burns on my hands. I don’t know how Steve gets that perfect barbeque every year … right now I’m just hoping my eyebrows grow back pretty quick.
