I put a fire pit in my yard this weekend. Why it never occurred to me before now, I have no idea. There was a ring of bricks in the ground out there before I moved in (3 years ago now, jeez) but it was way too close to the shed, and had a very low hanging tree over it. I decided to move it across the yard, and bought a steel fire ring to go with it. When I told my landlord, he mentioned that there were a bunch of bricks behind the shed I could use, a huge pile of fallen sticks and a chopped down tree that had been hit by lightning that I could burn. So… perfect.
There were enough bricks / brick pieces to just fill the inside of the fire pit.
And I’ve had camper pies for dinner both yesterday and today.
Delicious.
