Bonfire Fun


Wow, this whole weekend was pretty much the definition of perfect. Could we have asked for any better weather? I wish I could replay all three days over and over. The highlight of Saturday was our bonfire. I worried all day that it was going to be too windy for Karlo's traditional 8 foot fires, but as luck would have it, Karlo built a normal sized fire and the winds died down. We had the perfect amount of people to fit around our big fire pit and the night was just plain awesome. I didn't realize that we wouldn't have a moon which made the sky pitch black and perfect for star gazing. That sure is one good perk about living in the middle of nowhere, the stars are amazing.



We had our fill of ladder ball, ATV rides, horse shoes, smores and beer. The company was terrific, the fire cozy (actually, it was especially 'cozy' since two of our "Kozey" neighbors joined us) and the marshmallow roasting . . . well, that didn't go so great. I still have a lot of practice to perfect the art of marshmallow roasting. Let's just say that it's a good thing Karlo likes them 'well done.'
