Most likely this was the last time this season the chimenea will get used. Pip had been eager for a long time to build a fire but when the opportunity would come, it seemed it was always just after a rain and our wood would be wet. This evening we knew it would be a nice night for it and Pip had accumulated a good store of kindling and pine cones for the event.
Meg and I needed to be bundled up despite the warm flames.
Pip is the official overseer of the fire and takes every chance to throw in another pine cone and light his poke stick. There were several close calls where the fun was nearly shut down due to lack of appropriate fire safety on his part.
Viv was smart enough to mostly keep her distance and eat her hot dog a few feet back.
