I LOVE bonfires!
We have one almost every weekend when the weather is cooler.
We had our first last week.
We burn anything from the garbage that's burnable...all paper goes in the pit.
We have several trees on the 10+ acres so that's not a problem.
At work there are several departments that save their pallets for me to burn. Those last a LONG time!
We usually start when the sun goes down and until the crowd thins.
My favorite memory is passing a bottle of wine and never knowing who's gonna show and what's going to be said.
Awesome times...and very cigar friendly![whip]
