fire...



I love fire. And since we have a forest in our backyard, there is always an abundance of stuff to burn. We made a nice clearing in the yard and set up a fire pit. Nothing fancy, just some stray bricks set up in a good size circle. Some of my favorite nights are fire nights. We set up our chairs, grab some hotdogs (hotdogs taste really good roasted over an open fire) and marshmallows, of course. It's magical when darkness falls and the only light comes from the glow of the fire. Mesmerizing. And the conversation is always good. And when the kids give up and retreat back to the air conditioned house, my hubby and I stay. And talk. About our worries and hopes and dreams...
