What is it about a camp fire that is so wonderful? We only do it on very special occasions. It was not our first fire of the season. We had a ritual sofa burning of the loveseat we bought from a side-of-the-road used furniture sale for next to nothing. It was on it's way to Catholic Charities as the shop owner was selling the farm and heading out in a Winnebago, as many people do around here. I think I gave him $20, and the loveseat lasted for three or four years. With dogs in the house, old sofas are the only way to go. This sofa was ready to go for good. It made a lovely fire and Mia was here to enjoy it. This time Brian Redmond was here, and our fire was first used to cook a fabulous meal. He put corn on the cob on the open flame and it was delicious. Knut LOVES when we sit outside, next to the tree where his igloo is. The lovely cool temps we've been having make the warmth of the fire so inviting.
