snow and a bonfire

The other night, Mike invited several people over for a bonfire in the back yard.  First off, that would be unheard of in California.  Second, it is snowing.

There was more than one time that night that I was muttering, "Only in Wisconsin."  And it was not just because he was serving brat's, and beer.

And I love it here....

Technical: there was very little light there, despite the fire, so all of these were beyond the reach of my camera, even at extra high ISO and a fast lens.  But it was still fun.  You would have though that I would have said that I just can't take photos and left it at that....but no.
