Mr. Cooper's Fire


We attended a small gathering of fire enthusiasts who were celebrating a friend's 6oth last night ... Beautiful evening, great chili, lots of people ... lots of fun ... I just watched a segment about Tom Petty on the CBS Sunday Morning show and he said about birthdays ' If you're not getting older, you're dead.' .. So, next time you're up, grab some fireworks, build a fire, get some food, grab some friends ... It's just another day in paradise ... Click the pictures to enlarge them ...

It was a bright and sunny fall day, some snow in the higher elevations

a crowd gathered

the pile was ready

except for some last minute fuse adjustments

and a littl emore kerosene
