Henry David Thoreau said it best: “The fire is the main comfort of the camp, whether in summer or winter, and is about as ample at one season as at another. It is as well for cheerfulness as for warmth and dryness.”
Adding a fire pit to the backyard will not only add warmth when needed, but also a certain cheerfulness that comes from fire gazing, either sitting alone or among others.
