Dan's Avocado Refurb - COMPLETE
« on: May 26, 2015, 11:04:24 AM »
A while back, I was fortunate to buy Pastor Dan's old Cado (he's a well-respected guy over at Brethren).  Several guys here helped deliver the grill to me - many thanks!  Below are some before & after shots.  The old girl is ready for another 40 years of fun.  Gave it to my brother yesterday!












Sorry about the rotation on the last pic!  I struggle with tech sometimes....

Stunning work!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch
