How awful that your home burned down!<br /> We have a short burning season here (December to May usually). After that open fires are usually prohibited as the woods dry out. You can see from the photos that it's very green and wet here still.<br />Bonfires are such a cool thing for kids and families and we enjoyed participating in this burn party.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449827163911239893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4424004817560458114.post-17230266009426899212010-05-12T11:05:27.669-07:002010-05-12T11:05:27.669-07:00Wow, I am amazed... didn't know there are stil...Wow, I am amazed... didn't know there are still places you could have bonfires !<br />I fondly remember in Fall, bonfires in my Grandfather backyard and roasting potatoes but that was 60 years ago,<br /><br />Having lived in California (where my home burned down) and now Arizona... fire season has become a year around season. So no bonfires! in fact you will get a ticket and have to pay a fine.<br />There are some National Camping Parks where fires are allowed but I think because of budget cuts they are all closed.<br /><br />So strange how we all view fires so differently.angryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4424004817560458114.post-28844464468462130582010-05-12T06:48:45.629-07:002010-05-12T06:48:45.629-07:00It sounds like fun.It sounds like fun.Rudeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17889298704039071473noreply@blogger.com
