We Didn't Start the Fire...Oh, Wait. I Did.

I grew up camping and having campfires in the backyard.  Yet somehow, I lacked any real fire building skills.  Well, ladies and gentlemen...that has changed.

                                                                No Fire....

Fire!!!

And I didn't all by myself.  I had to chase away my Dad once or twice, but that fire was all mine.  Goal #8...Done!

Now we couldn't waste a good campfire so we had some of my favorite people over for campfire fare.

After dinner we went for a boat ride on the river while the fire died down.

By the time we got back we had coal for s'mores.  You can't have a campfire and not make s'mores.  

All in all it was just what a summer evening should be.

Yours affectionately,
