And that Bud Light will be used to put out the campfire later.

We tend to stay away from campfires and open containers of alcohol

As a rule we stay away from campgrounds with open containers of alcohol, campfires are okay if the campfire is at the rear of my camper. I like beer but I keep the can covered with a cozy. I don’t drink alcohol when my granddaughter is around. But different folks like different stuff

This started out to be a good thread Tyler811, before it went astray about adult beverages (which I enjoy also).

Perhaps we could start another with pics of campfires?

You call that a "Campfire" ?? I've seen bigger flames come out of grill lighter.

If we're not out camping, this is our fall back arrangement.

This was the last campfire we had last season. Actually, more of a bonfire as you can see how tall the fire is compared to the guy standing next to it.
