Fall is such a beautiful time of the year!❤️🍁 One of my favorite things to do this time of year is to hang out around the fire-pit with family and friends. Watching a fire 🔥 burn is much like watching a Waterfall… You can relax and just be, and not worry about other things… This is a perfect place of Zen.
Last nights fire 🔥 was a good one! It helped to set the tone for the week ahead…
Have a great Monday!

What a beautiful morning! The sun is out and it’s so warm I was able to sit outside in my shorts and a T-shirt this morning 😊 We are past our 1st frost and freeze now, so I guess you can call this an Indian Summer… And I’ll take it! In 8 days we will celebrate Halloween 🎃 Then we enter the Holiday Season 🦃 🎄It all comes so fast 💨 I’m still trying to enjoy the Fall Color before it disappears… Here are a few pictures of some Fall Color that I have captured on film over time. Enjoy the season at hand, it’s the best one, and the only one that’s real right Now ❤️










Colorful foliage, almost no bugs, beautiful weather, football, fire pits… I Love Fall 🍁🏈🎃🔥
“Looking out my window
In October’s golden light,
I see a beauty unsurpassed,
A truly lovely sight.
Leaves are saying soft good-byes
As they come floating down
To make a nature’s carpet
Of yellow, red, and brown.
Mountain tops, now turned to white,
Forewarn of winter chills,
While trees, like golden rivers,
Wind their way up through the hills.
Throughout our world’s creation
You will ever find it thus,
Kaleidoscopes of color,
In God’s hand, the artist’s brush.”
~ Alora M. Knight
Have a great Sunday 🙏🏻

Good Monday Morning! One of the only things that can grab my attention like a flowing Waterfall is a Fire 🔥 Watching a fire burn is pretty awesome… You can sit down and watch it burn and get lost in those flames… Very Zen 🙏🏻 Here’s a timely Fire for ya…
Here we go! Another beautiful week has started.
Have a good one!

Ahhhh, sweet November! We are post Halloween and quickly approaching the Holiday Season! With all this Fall beauty comes Fall chores, and one of my favorite fall chores is leaf cleanup 🍁 which means Bonfire 🔥
Waterfalls and Fire Pits are different elements for sure, but they are very similar too… You can get lost in the burble and movement of a Waterfall for sure! A good fire will capture your attention in much the same way… I can sit and watch a good fire and get so relaxed!! A good fire will take you to a place of Zen! So grab a good leaf rake and create a little place of Zen for yourself…
Have a great day!

Well, we are into the 1st full day of Fall now & boy does it feel great! 46 degrees this morning! It really feels like we changed seasons 😊 The next big holiday around the corner is Halloween 🎃 which lead me right too this old throwback memory of Halloweens long ago…

I may wear this same getup for this years Halloween! How can a guy go wrong as a cowboy?! Do you think you could wear your 6 guns and holsters to a school function nowadays? 🤔 Me thinks not… But let me tell you one thing for certain! That boy you see in that picture there, would have for sure! I guess cowboys had more sway back then… Lets bring back Cowboys! 🤠🇺🇸
Heres to the spirit of Fall! Bon fires🔥 Football 🏈 Beautiful color 🍁 and dont forget Halloween! 🎃
Have a great #throwbackthursday!

What a beautiful, sunny morning! 🌞 It’s Groundhog Day! Guess what… I saw my shadow! You know what that means, yep, I need to loose a few pounds…

Old Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning as well… What does that mean? Well, if you trust the worlds most famous rodent prognosticator, it means 6 more weeks of Winter 🥶

Folks, no matter what the weather rat 🐀 says, Spring is still March 20th. this year no matter what! And that’s good with me! That means I still have time to get all the February chores done. Still time to enjoy a fire or three with my family. Still time to enjoy the pre-Spring landscape – Before Spring really hits! To me this is a reminder – Spring is Coming! Rejoice & Be Happy! 😉

The beauty of a Garden 🪴 in the Spring and Summer is a given. But this evening as I was walking up the hill I just happened to look up and Boom 💥 The moon 🌙 the bare birch trees, the lights and the sound of the Waterfalls… Even on a night in January, I had to stop and enjoy the beauty. Now, I’m thinking a fire 🔥 is in order …

Have a great evening!

The leaves 🍁 are turning and starting to fall. The air is crisp and cool… Football 🏈 is back in season. Fall is an Awesome time! One of my favorite ways to enjoy the season is to grill out by the pond and to have a nice Fire 🔥

There’s no nicer evening than sitting by the Pond and feeling the warmth of a Fire 🔥 Fire and Water make a heck of a pair 😊
We also love to burn leaves 🍁 in the Fall. An open wood burning fire pit can help with a safe controlled burn area.

A fire pit is a great way to enjoy the evening and watch the sun go down! It’s also a fun way to get rid of fall leaves too!
Check out a few of the unique one of a kind Fire Features we have designed and created. You might enjoy one yourself 💡
