Anybody Need a Burger?

  The sun has finally revealed itself from behind the clouds here in Belgium! You know what that means! Barbeque time! Unfourntinely for us we had left your good old Canadian Tire grill back in Chapel Hill. We spent the last season using an old charcol hibachi, which was not going to cut it for us this year.



  
That is were our new friends at 
Standard - AHZ come in and save the day. I didn't want to get another grill that was just going to rust and needed to be replaced in a year or two. We had looked at our local Brico and didn't like anything we saw, still don't know what that side burner is for. So we headed east to Leuven, just about 20 minutes from our house, to Standard - AHZ. We were greeted with more choices then we could ever imagine, and a few beers! We quickly decided upon a good old Canadian made Broil King Signet, no side burner in sight.

The 1st Blog by Leroux

Where to start? I have been wanting to blog for sometime now. Being lazy it has taken me about a year to get this thing started. The last 4 months of my life have been crazy. I quit my job, moved to Canada, got Married, and moved back to the States. In the next month I will be moving to Belgium. Not really sure what I will be doing in Belgium other then learning French and Flemish. My wife, who is so beauty, is getting a job there. We are both really excited about the move cause we are tired of North America.

I plan to be blogging about my adventures and things that piss me off. Example: It was the anniversary of 9/11 the other day. Here, where i am staying in the States has a large military community with lots of families with people in Iraq. So local schools used the anniversary to explain why their fathers and mothers are stationed in Iraq. Yeah, because Iraq was responsible for 9/11, what? Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, but here in the south most people just think if you live in the middle-east you had something to do with 9/11.
