Hint of fall was in the air. Noticed the leaves on the red maple were starting to turn… it won’t be long now. Best days of the year IMO are the ~8 weeks in October and November.

Yep, it's just 82 here in Kennesaw right now, breezy, low humidity. There was a storm over the weekend, so I've got plenty of fuel from the front yard for my fire pit. We had a series of spring/summer storms that have really populated by my back woods with limbs. I'll forage for those and bring a little firewood from the lake and enjoy some fall evenings.
Was thinking about the fire pit today... I picked one up last fall from a local guy who runs a welding business and sells them. Had him put a script A on it... only ended up using it twice all fall/winter... maybe I can at least double that this year...

My wife & I were having coffee on the deck & I noticed how many of the leaves on the hackberry tree are in the yard already.

Based on the last 4 months around here, we have enough limbs to burn a wet mule!

Seasons seem to be ahead of the calendar for a good number of years now. Five years ago,?, I had a peach tree and daffodils blooming in mid February.
I'm looking at getting one of these next year for the lake, made in Tuscaloosa, too:Was thinking about the fire pit today...

A few years ago, I lost a nice group of Hackberry trees. My little old pickup was sitting right there when they fell...

Luck! This hackberry is around 80-100ft tall. If it goes my neighbors or my bedroom get it
Here's the guy that did mine... super nice dude, used to teach shop class at a local HS and then started hos own welding business. He employees a lot of the kids he used to teach and gets them some good experience so that they can find better jobs later, including some who have been dealt a tough hand in life. They do a lot more than fire pits, but he sells a good bit of those. Mark's Outdoors and some other places around the state have parterend with him in the last year or so.

My HS machine shop teacher was the same way. Talked to him on the phone a few years ago. Loved that man and his life lessons. My first real mentor.Here's the guy that did mine... super nice dude, used to teach shop class at a local HS and then started hos own welding business.

A 41 inch size would work for me over the 48 inch, I just didn't want the 36. I'll have to check it out, thanks. Also, the neat lid from the other place that goes over the 36 inch is 42 inches, I could grab that for a similar look/summer usage.Here's the guy that did mine... super nice dude, used to teach shop class at a local HS and then started hos own welding business.

The lid is definitely the way to go... few extra bucks but well worth it. We use it as a small table when a lot of people are over but it also keeps rain/water from running out the drain hole in the bottom, which I needed to avoid in my case in the event ashes were still inside it.
This dude has an add on grate that’s easy to take on and off, but I didn’t get one (yet). Not sure how much I’d use it since I have 3 grills as it is, though I’d absolutely throw some steaks on it at times.
I may buy the grill even if I go with the other brand. It's 1/4 inch vs. 3/16 like this one (which is what I have now, absolutely plenty). If I'm looking correctly, it looks like there's plenty of play with the threaded tightener for the grill to work on either thickness.
It was 60 degrees this morning in Kennesaw. I dropped the back window on the Tundra and rolled in to work, very nice. Nice to have a hint of fall.
Yeah, that does look pretty tight from that view. Thanks.Maybe. Here's a better look at it...
