They look damn good. Did you steam them first?
Yeah . . . steamed for about 25 miutes with a little lemon, salt, & minced garlic in the water.

Brushed em with an olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper mixture . . . grilled for 2 1/2 min. each side.

Made a dip of 1/2 cup mayo, 2 tblspns OJ, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/4 tsp. of minced capers, & a little worcestershire

Just started watching it here in Southern BC. Not as strong as you had it in your picture. It's supposed to peak by 2:AM though.

Is that a big bore? Where is that? We have those all over the Hawaiian Islands.

Its a Javelina. A lot smaller than yours. Seen some big ones up Waimea canyon.

A pack of 7 crossed the fairway at the Boulders in Carefree while we were at the grill restaurant.

Update:

Today we threw in the varsity finals at Westlake High School. It's an uphill pit so it's very, very difficult to improve here, most kids get discouraged because their distances are usually 1.5-2 feet shorter than what they are used to.

Like I said in the previous post she was number 2 in our conference, she was 2.75" behind 1st place. Her best previous throw was 25' 7.5" and she brought it today, she was set on kill and taking no prisoners. Her first throw was her best at a MONSTEROUS 26' 6" bomb 💣. She took 1st, we had a first year thrower that was in 3rd throw a new PR and took 2nd and the old 1st place got knocked down to 3rd, we took 1 and 2 today in the 11-12 girls and they move on to co-conference next week, top 3 in each age group move on to co-conference.

We also took 1st in 11-12 boys and 1st in 9-10 boys and 1st in 13-14 girls. Overall great day.

My son had an off year and didn't do as well as he wanted but he fought hard trained and practiced and is overall happy with his performance knowing he did everything he could this year and left nothing on the table. Good lesson this year for him to be proud even though it wasn't what he wanted and to learn that we can't have a stellar year every year.
Next update:

She had another huge day with a 27' 5" throw, her first 3 throws were all over 27 and her 4th was 26'11", she is number one in Ventura County for 10-11 girls. 2nd place threw 26'3", no competition for her. Our other, older girl threw 26'7" which was a several inch personal record for her as well.

Great throwing season for the Running Rebels, until next year.
