Bonfire

We burned one of the five year old burn piles from when we cleared trees for the fences. It's always a little tricky because we have to wait until any county burn ban has been lifted, but also when it hasn't been too wet. We also like the time to coincide with when the family is all home to enjoy it. This time was right after Christmas (I know, I'm way behind in my posts) when we added a couple of Christmas trees to the pile.

This pile was out in a open field, some distance away from any trees, so we weren't too worried about starting a brush fire. But it was very windy that evening, and the embers were blowing a long way. Thankfully there was a slight drizzle that night so the ground was damp.
