Bad news there Don. I got a late start and Direnzos was closed! No coal! The good news is I'm at the Beaumont and they have a good bar and very good food!StokerDon wrote:Scalabro,

I was kind of looking forward to some pictures or video of grown men who've had too much to drink, playing with a coal fire.

The Fireplace gallery is just down the road if you want to stop there. Let him know what it is for. He'll probably give you a real good deal.StokerDon wrote:Well don't you all worry bout it, There's some coal around hear I can bring.
