Fire!

Tomorrow (today I guess), Sunday, 4/20, at approximately 10:00 AM. I will be setting my lawn on fire. Well, a small spot in the back, on which I will dispose of about 7 years worth of brush. If you're bored, come on out.

"Dutch oven" brings back the memories of Kensal Rise 2003.

My heavens. Wish I could go to this.

The fire was wicked big. My neighbor and his two kids helped me keep it moving, and brought over a ton of their brush, too. The X-Mas trees were exciting.

Regrets:
<ol type=i>
<li>Not noticing the birds nest in my old wreath until I was about to put it in the fire... and then finding the broken eggs when I went back to where it had been (still on my front door)</li>
<li>Allowing an ember to float undetected past everyone and set ablaze a bunch of leaves in my kids' playground.</li>
<li>Allowing another ember to float undetected and burn my daughter</li>
<li>Allowing the tree branch 50 feet above us to catch fire, and only having about 40 vertical feet of water pressure</li>
</ol>

Invite us out again at some point, 10D, I still haven't met your burned-to-a-crisp daughter.

Sounds like a classic event, it should be held again. "I got smoked at the _________'s 4/20"

4/20 is Marathon Day next year, so it's possible. It will be on a Saturday in 2013.

So, so cute.

Did she get any of your DNA? She obviously got all of the Pants' beautiful lady genes. ;)

PS-- My sister baked me a couple of lookers, too.

Sounds like it should be in a field next time...with the local fire department on call.

Find me on github.
