always check city/ county codes b/4 building any permanet structures in your yard. if you get a fire pit please make sure the fire is completly out- drown it, and stir the coals and cover with screening.

i had a summer ruined by an open fire pit. it supposedly but out ash had burried a few live coals. yup, playing frisbee my right foot found the coals. can you say ouch?
