Usually when I start the fire pit going the neighbor asks what they can bring and we end up having a nice meal and good conversation. Did it a lot during quarantine times in fact. Now through this summer we didn't get together much as I have been working every night on a home remodel. Once it is done I'm sure we'll be back to almost nightly fires to cook on or stand around. BTW I do live in the country and have 40 acres to do what I want on.
