We watched a house burning once and it is really sad. My husband loves to make little fires in our firepit. Our yard is surrounded by trees so we have to be really careful.

When I lived..."A Penny for Guy Fawkes"...<br />When I lived in Peterborough, England, children would walk around saying "A Penny for Guy Fawkes", which means you have to give them a penny, kind of like trick or treating... I have no idea why they ask for money on that day, to be honest, I've never looked it up, but now I shall :)<br />That is one heck of a bonfire Judy, but I love me a bonfire...<br />Where are the marshmallows???<br />Much love to you,<br />Tammy xxtlcukjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18126317345680620502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-14711514664566776002013-08-08T09:32:35.606-05:002013-08-08T09:32:35.606-05:00How fun, Judy!

We had a new curriculum at my school this year, and I taught about Guy Fawkes. It was rather ironic that the British celebrate a thwarted bombing with fireworks. My students found it rather funny.<br /><br />I agree with everyone else- bonfires are beautiful and scary at the same time. I like the virtual Fireplace in Your Home on Netflix. No fire extinguisher necessary!<br /><br />Blessings and hugs!

This year we had so many groups playing that they went well past midnight and we ended up not lighting the fire. The pile is still there. At this point we will probably wait until a cool autumn evening and invite some friends over. I love to watch as long as it's well-controlled.
