New fire pit

Well since I can't go camping as much as I would like to I am bringing the camp ground to me. I built a new fire pit next to where I park the camper in the back yard. Now I can roast a chicken over the fire at home as well as the campground. Click image for larger version

Thank you, the parking pad will get better over time. I just put over 30 ton of gravel in the make this. I plan on building a car port and poring concrete when money allows it.

Impressive. It looks like you are at a campground. Nice looking firepit. You come up with that or is that a kit of some sort?

I just went to the local brick and block manufacture and bought the block and figured it out.

I like your chairs too. We've been looking for some that are not bulky and lightweight. Yours look like they would fit our needs. What brand are they?

I'm not sure what the brand of these are but we bought them at Walmart. I bought some that stay in the camper from Cabalas that are better. They are lighter and have a cup holder. They are also more comfortable.

If my backyard looked like that I'm not sure I would leave. Great job!

What does it cost to come camp at your house?

Thank you all. Your welcome anytime, I'm always looking for some someone to drink a cold beer with.

I thought it was a campground when I had first seen the picture. Looks awesome. I'd come and drink a few with you.
