Being a MBH and MLH collector, been quite a drought for collectables. Little over a week ago me and a local made a trade. In return I received
a Red and Black MT. My go to grill has been my Green MT, Best all around grill in IMO. I had resorted to making these spring projects. Last Sunday, after getting home from an out of town wedding. Leaves and grass were still wet from an overnight frost. What to do? I pulled out the Black, looking it would take less time to RRR.




So on Friday a local alert is sent on a Blueberry MT. We all let it go, price was more than I was will to pay and to the limit of drive time.
Made dinner for the Fam Friday night, enjoyed a couple of adult beverages with the bride. Picked the computer up late Friday night.
Still listed? So I fish and send, IMO, a reasonable offer. Get a reply, we countered and came up with an agreed price. Stipulated though,
could only pick up Saturday morning between 7-8am.

CL Shot:


After the pick-up. Stop at Mom's to do some fall clean up. Get home and it is kind of doom and gloom out. Knowing Sunday was going to be a better
day for lawn work. Blue get's RRR. Not a blow out or any rim ash. Just some rust around the two handles.




Sunday morning, well yard is damp! Down to storage and pull out the Red MT. Get the ball rolling on that one. yard was getting ready to mow finally.
Leaves falling like crazy. Off to the store to get supplies for Grilled Fish Tacos. Home and have at the yard. Grilla Fella showed up to pick up some
oak that I didn't room for, because the rest of the tree needed to come down.



After this task, red was completed. Sorry didn't get any stand alone of this one...





And with the cooker.



Thanks for looking!

Well, being a newer fella here, I gotta say that this is the type of collection I'm striving for. Very nice man. I'm gonna start building some shelves...

@ Travis, be careful what you say, they don't all fit... Pole barn would be better :o
You don't see some, to big for shelves and the MT's need to be added.

Edit - I just showed my bride this thread, my original response, then yours along with the picture. She at first says " don't get any ideas", then after I show her your storage picture with explanation of ages of a few of them she says " those are pretty!" I give her a kiss... Got her
