Fire Pit

We built a fire pit in the backyard earlier this summer. There were some bricks just scattered about in one part of the backyard from the previous tenant of the house. They were not doing anything useful where they were, so we decided to put them to good use. I had the boys carrying the bricks to where we put the pit one at a time and stacking them up. They are pretty good builders so this was an easy task for them. At the end of the day they worked pretty hard, but were very proud of the pit they made. This weekend it finally cooled off enough to try it out. So we did just that last night. We used it to cook some hot dogs for supper and some s'mores for dessert. There are probably a few improvements we can make. Perhaps we can make the pit more of a permanent structure in time. For now though, it will be nice to have the pit this fall.
