It was a good day to burn that grapevine that I've been working at cutting off the side of the house. I spent an hour and a half on that project. But the day became surprisingly nice and sunny.
So, when life gives you campfires... make hot dogs!
"Hot dogs! Where? Hot Dog! O shucks, that second one is for Dad, not for me? Well, ok... I got Mom to throw a stick for me for a long, long time. And I did get a good-girl cookie when we went inside."

What a great day--campfire, hot dogs over the fire, dog friend. Who could want more???
Yes, who could want more..
We don't get many camp fires - most people use the gas ones here.
We would have had to tie Meg up, she would have jumped on the fire for a hot dog :)
I'd love to have a fire in the garden but I think the neighbours would probably complain :-(
What a wonderful way to spend a gorgeous fall day. You just can't beat cooking over an open fire. Lucy you!
I would say you managed to turn that into a very successful day and even Maggie seems to approve
I have to agree with everyone else. I also know how difficult it is to get rid of a grapevine. So I know you had to have enjoyed the cookout!!
Maggie is lovely!:-)
I love that variation of the old adage, lol
Sounds like another quality day, esp for Maggie, even if she didn't get the second hotdog :D
A job well-done, a nice fire and a hot dog for a reward. Pretty good fall day, I'd say.
Lin- Yup, it was surprisingly pleasant. I went out to burn stuff because it had rained and there wasn't much wind... ended up quite pleasant.
rainfield- well, I could wish for my best friend to be there, but it was good enough!
Carol- gas fires outside? Well, I was keeping a good eye on Mags. She has her moments.
John- That's the joy of living in the country... no neighbors that close.
Mom- hey, thanks for stopping by! You are right... it's just the very best!
Ann- Maggie wanted even more stick time, but she's not very good at bringing it back, and I'm not willing to spend forever hunting for it.
Shinade- I'm sure the vine will be back, but hopefully I won't wait so long to deal with it.
Ivy... Midge would have loved it. The weather turning nice was quite a surprise.
vanilla- Yes, it was quite rewarding!
Fire-grilled dogs, one of my faves. Lucky.
