Perseid Meteor Shower Bon Fire


Perseid Meteor Shower Bon Fire in Alaska was not a complete bust because of the slight drizzel of rain. Alaskan ingenuity kicked in with a few minds around and we figured out a way to comply with mother nature. We took the tarp off of the wood pile and set up some poles with equal pressure from both sides. The rest of us were setting up the fire in the front of the house. Once the fire was going more people started arriving and it turned into another block get together on Sunday. There was a couple that was walking down the street and we invited them over. They just arrived in Alaska from Montana and came from a smaller town than Fairbanks, go figure. One is a chef and will be a great addition to our Sunday cook off. There is nothing like Alaskan hospitality and they really felt like they were at home. It seems we have added a few more people to our block get together. When I moved to Madcap Ln the neighbors were feuding with each other. Now we have Sunday bon fires and everyone brings a dish, with a tale or story.
