The new gas grills are just too darn expensive for me to consider for just me and a fire for cooking. So I bought a nice little propane camp stove and it works great for grilling just one or two hamburgers or steaks. It does not take up much space and it only uses a little propane each time I use it. In fact, the same little tank of propane has lasted me from Memorial Day and is still going strong tonight.
It was a great deal and it does a great job. What else can you ask for?

Well, looks like all the tomato plants I bought this year got that fungus that I read about. It seems that every tomato plant sold by all the big outlets like Home Depot, KMart, Lowes and Target were infected with the fungus at the nursery or wholesalers before being shipped. The fungus has slowly killed each plant. I cut down each plant and tossed them in the trash can. So no tomatoes in my garden this year.

This week we have a cold front of artic air battering the area and it is too cold to play golf. This is a little early for the really cold weather, but then this year has been mild and wonderful up until now. So I suppose we have to pay our dues.
I hope to take advantage of the cooler temperatures and do some yard work. We have about a dozen large bags of leaves that need raking and dragging to the curb before they get too wet. It’s easier to rake and drag tree limbs around when the air is brisk.

Welcome to Claude’s blog. If you like sports and all things outdoors then we’ll get along just fine. In fact, if you’ve got some fish tales and gardening tips, I’d love to hear them.
I’m a St. Louis Cardinals fan, Washington Redskins fan, and Nashville Predators fan. I don’t care much for basketball, but I try to get in a college game or two each year with my grandson to introduce him to the sport and cultivate his interest.
So that’s about it for me. If you like it, hope you come back soon.
