Question

A 90 year old gentleman had an estate sale today on the Central Coast by Morro Bay. While my wife was fighting the crowd in the house I went into his garage and found 2 #8 cars iron skillets. One is a Griswold, the other just has a JU on the bottom. Both are in great shape and just need a little seasoning. Got them both for $10. Can't wait to get home and get them ready for camping.
