The past few weekends, I’ve taken to upgrading my Saturday morning Council Fire and have slept outside first. Since I am just steps from the house, it’s literally no trouble to throw the tent on the patio and then pack it up the in the morning. My breakfast stuff is all inside, and making coffee and a fire are all I need to do. No packing of food, no hauling stuff to the car – it’s pretty great. Lloyd likes it, too, because he hasn’t had to sleep outside….. yet.
This weekend was MUCH better than the last two when I broke down and put a fan in the tent because it was so hot. This weekend it was actually cool at night!
I’ve learned to put everything away before starting the fire. I don’t mind smelling like smoke myself, but it’s a little much to have the blankets and pillows stink up the house.
Ahhhhhh……. think I could get away with doing this during the week?

That looks fun. I wouldn’t like the “being hot” part though.
