BBQ GRILLSummer is quickly drawing to a close. You can see the signs everywhere. The kids are going to back to school, the evenings are starting to get cooler, football games are cropping up on T.V. and in neighborhood parks, and roadside stands are selling fresh corn on the cob, vegetables, and fruits.

So, I’m making a point to take advantage of these final days of summer.

As I drive the country roads near where I live, I stop at those roadside stands to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables. And I absolutely make sure to grab a couple dozen ears of corn.

Most of these stands are self-serve. The honor system is at play here. Pick what you want and leave the money in the till. It’s a nice change of pace from swiping debit cards at a large Wal-mart.

And to make sure I drink in these last days of summer, I’m going to grill as much as I can.  I’m buying hamburgers, chicken, and brats. I’m picking up fresh buns and cheese. It’s time to shuck corn and drop ’em into a large pot of boiling water. All the ingredients which make for a great close to summer.

So, take advantage of these last days of summer. Get out of your “studio.”  Take a drive on a country road and grab some fresh picked corn. Get some burgers, chicken and brats. Fire up the grill, cook out, and take it all in!
