Burning Chair

I'm sure your wondering, why the heck is there a chair sitting in my back yard on top of a burn pile. Well, let me tell you, it has taken 5 years to get this thing out of the house and onto that little pile of coals. When I first met my hubby, he was what you would call a typical bachelor. He had the old, (but very comfy chair) as he would say. After a few years together, we decided it was time to get him a new chair and ditch the old Lazy boy recliner. Even with the new chair, he still wouldn't give up this old and by now broken chair. He told me it could stay down stairs and be another place to sit....LOL! About a week ago our new couches came in, so the old couches went down stairs.....catching on yet....He finally decided that we just don't have the room for this ugly ( but don't forget comfy chair) in our home anymore. So he surprised me last night by dragging it outside.

On went the gas......


and more gas!

After several failed attempts, it finally is fully engulfed in flames.

It burned very fast....this was about 10 min later. Maddy enjoyed throwing sticks on top.


The next day aftermath.
