What is going on here??

We all save our Christmas trees and then burn them at our 4th of July cookout. It's sort of a tradition now and it's grown at ton. My brother has even engineered the stake in the fire pit to stand it up on.

Leia asked to watch it. She asked if we could go do that. Lol

You are more than welcome to come next year. I think it's about a 12 hour drive though.

That was way cooler than I was expecting! Fun tradition! Where do you store your tree so it doesn't get wet nor burns your house down?

[hairballs]

Very neat. Do you do fireworks too or does this replace them?

We usually put it under our deck or behind our shed. It does get wet but it dries out again as long as it doesn't rain on the actual day we are doing the burning.

We usually have a few sparklers but the trees are the big deal. We go and see a firework show in town usually on the actual 4th.

That is awesome! Way cooler than store-bought fireworks!!

I love that tradition! I wish we had more land to do fun things like that.
