    Very nice! The designs on the side really pop with the fire going.

    Last year with 5 fires I used nearly 2 full totes of uglies, chunks and nuggets. So probably gonna nearly double that.
    At 1/3 cord each ….. so at least a cord

    Smoky bear was there. Reindeer for the kids to pet. Santa arrived on a fire truck with the sheriff escorting him.

    Nice to finally put a face to the name. Too bad they dont have a hat like that with the FHC logo on it.

    I imagine you get a vicious wind chill factor there being open and flat. Im not a fan of wind in the cold.

    I think my face has been on here before. Your probably just subconsciously trying to forget having seen it, don’t blame you

    Maybe add hay bales for some seating. Perhaps.
    Nice hat. I have one as well. Coyote from the Northwoods of Minnesota.
    Good to see a small rural community having fun! Carry on.
