Fire Ring
Last week, Dh put this fire ring together. It is made out of old patio blocks that have been used for assorted projects over the years. The last place they were in use was in surrounding the old garden plot that we just took out last fall. The ring is actually placed on one end of the garden plot. This is a temporary solution to building a permanent fire ring. First we wanted to be sure that where we chose it would be liked. We didn't like our last spot out in the grove. We have too many trees dying and a small spark could cause a much larger fire. So we opted for someplace more open. We think it will be fine, but we will have to drag chairs over or decide to make some benches, eventually. So we will wait to see if it gets used and if it is enjoyed out in the open.
You can see from this picture how close it is to our lane. You can barely make out the strawberry bed that was just put in on the far end of this old garden plot. You all probably shake your heads at my description of this old plot. This was our old garden... the veggie garden. I plan to eventually make a flower garden out of the plot. I told the girls I am going to make it a secret garden. One asked if I was going to put stone walls up, but I don't think DH would want to move snow around that in the winter, so likely not. The reason it is a secret is that DH doesn't quite know my plans for it, yet! LOL, he just thinks it is a neat spot for the campfire! I'm sure he'll figure it out later this summer when he sees all the flowers pop up. LOL. (I have alot of seeds I can fill in the garden with.) I will update on the "garden" aspect another time. Warmly, ~Melissa
