LOL Thanks for the notice. What a surprise!

What I was wondering is if Nello and his "wifey" would like to go with me in my car because it's a long drive and I think it would be more fun if we go in one car!

Seeing that I have to go through Jersey anyway to get to Philly!!!!!

My bad. Shouldn't send a child to do a man's job.

I will be bringing an 18 inch grill, charcoal and fluid. Maybe even lighter fluid.
Any requests?

We did grill, you just ran away in fear because of the rain drops damaging your coif.

I was kind of hoping for a cheesesteak, but sausage is always good.
