Like a kid on the skip, I smile at the hardware storeman, showing him a picture of my BBQ’s (actually broken) propane connector. Buying all the things I think I need — including a large, semi-transparent, fiberglass, propane tank, hose and regulator — I skip away lighter of pocket and heavier of load.
Back at the boat! Cognition sets in. I need one more part (the afore-mentioned broken connector)..
Back at the store! I almost buy a huge $60 mechanical and electrical guidebook and a hatch clasp fastener..
Back at the boat! I put it all together and grin gettin’ ‘er lit! Here marks my hiatus from Coleman grills.
My days of Coleman grill stoving it are over
