[Jolly Amaranto]

After getting up at the crack of dawn to start the fire, my son and nephews break up the 16hrs+ by circling the lawn chairs to drink coffee by the pit punctuated by foraging missions to gather more fuel in the woods. As the day progresses the coffee gives way to beer. Then usually a rousing "Corn Hole" tournament through the mid day. Finally the guitars come out for a jam session. In the mean time the rest of the clan prepares the sides for an evening feast.
