More than a backyard firepit… And here is how you can take it to the Daddio Level:

Winter: Have all your friends bring their dried out Christmas tree for a New Years bonfire! Or rent a trailer from Home Depot and they will gladly let you haul off as many trees as you can from their salvage pile. Just be sure you’re clear of any city ordinances or jittery neighbors who might call the fire department… although the kids would love that too… The trees are incredibly flammable though so be sure to have a large clearing both laterally and vertically as flames can go well over 50 feet in the air.

Summer: Take care of that pile of yard debris, fallen tree, or leftover lumber you’ve been hanging onto for the past ten years. Add a few tiki torches, some music. And for the main event, dig a 5 x 10 x 1 foot pit, and fill with water. You now have a mud wrestling bonfire extravaganza your friends and family will never forget! Annual tradition anyone??

Beach Bummin: There’s something primal about burning sticks on the sand. Dudes can sit and watch a crackling fire and be totally content, but add the sand on your feet and the sound of crashing waves… it’s perfect. Google and find a beach that allows fires for your next family trip.
