 Can I ask a question yet?

Sure! 1 question.

I actually like the photo of the kettles with the banner and how the color has sort of a vintagey Kodachrome look to it.

 Can I ask a question yet?

If you are looking at the teaser pic gummie posted on the front (home) page.
My C&B is behind the banner to the right of Bisbee who is indeed lurking behind the Westerner.

This past weekend I was lucky enough to be a part of the the first annual (or when we feel like it) NorCal WKC meet. 8 Grillfellas from the Bay Area and Sacramento got together to do some cooking and talking about bbq and Webers. Our event was held in Skyline Wilderness Park in Napa, CA right in the heart of wine country.  There was enough food to feed us for a week, and our members brought their very own prized kettles. For me getting people together is really what the hobby is about. Whether it's cooking for you small or large family, your friends, or even complete strangers, there's nothing like making good memories on a Weber kettle. Thank you for everyone that came out and participated and special thank you to Winz for helping to coordinate the event. It was truly an honor.

I'm a pictures kind of guy, so I hope you enjoy this photo set.

The event started bright and early. Napa was 1-2 hours away from some grillfellas and they needed to pack up first. We wanted to get to the park early to set up camp. This is the back of Argentflame's van loaded with his RK, some of Gummi's kettles, and a whole bunch of food and accessories



We were the first to arrive and promptly unpacked. Shortly thereafter, Winz and his Weber war trailer arrived. He woke up at 6am and drove to Sacramento to pick up 1Buckie and Mirkwood. And what a sight it was!


Imagine if you saw this rolling down the highway. WTF.









Before we unpacked everything we laid down the Weber Flag and claimed it for WKC.



Unpacking



There were grills everywhere!











Four performers









Here's our charcoal stash. We left the lighterfluid at home. 



1Buckie brought his throne. This park grill stayed lonely the entire time.





And some random supplies

One by one the grills made it to the camp. We split them up into "cookers" and "lookers"
