1st time smoking

Someone in our community dumped an old smoker out, we took it home and took it apart, gave it a good sanding, cleaning, new coat of high temperature paint, replaced wood fixtures and it's just like a new one. tonight we fired it up the 1st time to smoke some ribs, pork belly and a piece of salmon. looks like it works as good as a new one too!

Museum of Western Film History, Lone Pine

We stopped by the Museum of Western Film History after lunch at Lone Pine. It's the area where dozens of famous cowboy movies were filmed.






Manzanar National Historic Site

After weekend stay at PMC, we drove almost 3 hours to the East side of Sierra, stay a night at Ridgecrest. It was warm at the Valley, the girls managed to have some fun in the pool. After a great continental breakfast, we drove 1.5 hours north to the Manzanar War Relocation Camp where 10,000 Japanese American were forced to reside after Japanese Empire bombed Pearl Harbor.
