Oh how I love a good bonfire.....

Food, friends, adult beverages, s'mores, Christmas trees, cold weather, goats, horses and being in the country make for the perfect ingredients for an amazing bonfire!!!  Ok maybe you don't need the goats and horses but they are fun to feed and pet and we were on a farm lol!  Who knew goats love cheerios! Last night was the annual "burning of the Christmas trees" bonfire at my friends Fran's farm.  What a blast it always is and last night did not disappoint.  I think this year had the most trees brought to burn than years past with there being around 10.  We of course had another bonfire continuously going all night were we sat around ate, drank, told stories, ate some more, drank some more but the real entertainment came when we lite the Christmas tree bonfire.  Man those things burn fast when they are dry and boy do they put on a nice show of fire.....one minute it was this big tree, the next a ball of fire. Want proof....look at the pics I took below.  All of those Floridians that were freezing were toasting in a second! Good food, good friends, good drinks, awesome fire....GREAT night!
we burned one tree at a time
you can see how crazy each one was
