To Build a Fire

Last night I took little Ben to Mark Park and we built a fire in the woods. Mark Park is where my father accidentally burned part of his acrage down and I turned into a place to relax and enjoy nature. I named it Mark Park in honor of myself and all other people named Mark. (haha! actually they rymn.)

We flew a kite, layed in the hammock and played with the dogs. That is my favortie stuff to do without a doubt. Anyway, I am going to do a controlled burn and clear this park out so it looks professional, put a picnic table and lawn chairs, tent sites and a tire swing... its going to be awesome. I'll have to take some before and after pictures for my blog.

Terrence and I stayed and chit chatted until about 10pm last night. If it wasn't raining I would do the same thing tonight.

Hey, thanks for checking out my blog. I've been really bad about posting lately, but I'll get my groove back soon enough. So, you mentioned San Jose, are you familiar with Costa Rica?

zfbkWould you believe I have never been in a hammock before?!?!

Laura Reilly said...

Blasphemy! Well, if it's any consolation, I've never been surfing...

I surfed in Costa Rica once. Afterwards I felt like someone had put me in a washing machine for a few hours. I did make it past the break and chilled out for a while before getting seriously plummed by the waves.

Chit chatting is for girls! ha ha! Terrance and I have been criticized for our male bonding plenty. But believe me, mostly we just sit around and say totally inappropriate things about girls!

Sad but true...
