Autumn is Back

My favorite time of year, by far.... Autumn.  Finally we get a break from the 105 degree, 97% humid days of summer.  Lately it has been in the upper 50's, low 60's at night; perfect for a fire.  So, when Ethan went to bed early after playing at the zoo all day, I fired up the outdoor fire pit.  Christina and I spent a few "quiet" hours outside listening to the wood crack and hiss.  We were able to chat without having the TV blaring or a phone ringing.  It was nice.

Autumn is the best!!

PS: Outdoor fire pit? Is it portable? Or something that was built into the courtyard?
