Seems as if fire pits are all the rage lately. My sister was telling me that she was looking at some patio fire pits at FirePits.com to get some ideas about decorating her little garden oasis in the back yard.

I think that the fire pits are cute, and when I think of the memories of my own childhood of roasting marshmallows around a camp fire, I think about how cool it would be to have a fire pit to roast marshmallows on again. But then reality hits me and I realize that as awesome as it would look, my “real” family would probably never use it; my “real” family is a bunch of technogeeks that don’t like going outside for any reason at all. I love my family, truly I do, but I sometimes wish that we could have some “old fashioned” family fun together.

With the shop almost completed, my hubby and I have started to go to local networking meetings to let the local businessmen know that in a few weeks we’ll be open for business. He’d like to focus on working on turning classic cars into hot rods on the days that he feels good. Our neighbor George has already asked us if he can come and use the lift when he needs to perform a few rv repairs before his next camping trip. Sounds to me as if we are going to make a small fortune just renting out some lift time.
