Backstone Grill

Finally got around to getting a Blackstone Grill for the island. I've been hearing about these for years and a few of my friends had them and really like 'em.

Bacon action

I made smash burgers a few times and the kids loved it.

Opening Weekend 2025

Opening weekend 2025 was not super fun, when I discovered the pool shell had some type of rusted "pin-hole" that caused the water to slowly drain out for days or weeks. Anyway, this lowered the water level so far down that it pulled the winter cover into the pool and dumped all the leaves into the water.

Long story short = Hot Mess 

Pool cover problem

Winter 2025

Here are some photos taken by friends who happened to be on the island during the long cold month of January.
