    Perfect night last night for cooking over the fire. As long as it doesn't get too hot this is one of my favorite times of the year.

    Hot dogs were on the menu tonight, as well as pork and beans. Both grilled right over the open fire.

    100_0266 (1024x768).jpg

    The beans took less than 5 minutes, the fire was hotter than I thought!

    This last pic was NOT done over the fire but added to the atmosphere!

    WWW, your pics are a lot better than the ones WW takes! Her's usually have snow in 'em.
    Is that the body of water with the browns in it?

    Very nice pic, thanks for posting. Great view...whats the elevation on the hills?

    You get your wood from 7 Eleven?
    Is there a China Town in Wyoming?

    I've heard that boats can react differently at higher elevations like your 7400' msl. Do you see that up there and, if so, how does density altitude affect them? I know what happens with airplanes. Does a boat sit lower/higher in the water? Curious if there's a noticeable difference.
