Camping with the Fire Gods

Last Saturday Chris and I are with some friends for lunch
On a whim we decided to go camping for the night
Here's a time line of the next  24 hours


1 Pm - We decide to go on a camping/fishing trip
3 PM - On our way out of town when we realize that we didn't bring our lighter. So we stop at the Texaco and buy a new one.
4 PM - Arrive at our designated location camp and then realize that the gate is locked and they put up a fence
4:15 PM - Decide to take down the barbed wire fence with some pliers.
5 PM - Camp is set up and we head down to the lake
7 PM - With no fish, we head back to camp to cook up the hot dogs we brought just in case
7:15 PM - We realize that the brand new lighter has no butane. It's like we bought a flashlight but no batteries.
9:55 PM - We finally get a fire started.
10:10 PM - We are still singing hallelujah and chanting to the fire gods.




We spent 3 hours trying to start a fire. Funnest night in weeks!
