The pile was 8' tall and 10-12', maybe 15' wide in places. about half of the wood on this pile had been small green trees in the last 1-2 weeks. ignition (nothing but paper used, this was maybe 60secs) ![]() 4 mins ![]() 20 mins ![]() ~35 mins ![]() By the time we went to bed it was a hot bed of ash with pretty much nothing visible on top but some metal bits that had been part of gates or fencing. This afternoon more than 24 hours later, the missus started putting wood on it and the wood caught fire. Because it was so windy, we soaked the thing down until it was muddy ash. We'll have another pile built up by the time we can burn again.

Sunset last night. I was lazy, so this is through a double pane window which resulted in some reflections and a ghost moon.

the scenery/landscape is beautiful, but I barely noticed it because the car is so awesome. I do miss my old air-cooled 911.
Is the car silver or something else. It's hard to tell for sure.

Thanks! That's our old 84' Carrera and it is zinc metallic. It was taken near Mt Mitchell in the western NC mountains.

Gearing up to bounce over to Maui
![]() And rain……. Think shore diving might be a bust. Murky runoff tends to bring in the guys with the grey business suits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
