…waiting now in Houston harbor, before starting a long trip over the ocean…
6 weeks living in a container, before enjoy the European sun :-)

Can`t wait for it…

Be sure to see more detailed pix, when Klose is next to me.

I can't post what I've been calling mine the last few weeks!

Congrats on the pending arrival of the new pit. How much did they stick you for import tariffs?

Some folks name thier pits, others don't. I let the Mrs name mine. Of course, I reserved the right veto any given name :lol: 8) The Pit gallery (link in signature line) has names, if any, of the pits thier owners have given them. Might give you a feel for a name.

How about Meister Rippespeer-Küchenherd? Not very catchy is it?

Don't forget to christen the pit by breaking a bottle of beer across the exhaust pipe :lol:
Just kidding, don't scratch that paint cause I suggested it 8)
