Congratulations. I see why your spouse is happy. The evenings are some much better with a fire and its so much easier to stay outside a bit longer. I wish my backyard and the rio's riparian forest was not so dry that it inhibits my fires. Tom

Where's the beer? LOL! Seriously, that's really nice- my daughter would approve. (She's nuts for fire pits.)

arrowheadave they aren't firebricks but we don't build bonfires in there. The bricks get warm but not to the point where you could get a burn from them so I expect the will be fine.
Thanks everyone, planning on having a fire tonight.

How many people does it take to remove the front part of the chimney? That looks like a project. Otherwise, great job. Looks great.

Lots and lots of work. Definitely a high energy job. Shovels take punishment on those jobs.

Very nice, Tony, I'm sure the wife loves it! Now the weather just needs to cool down a bit so you can make good use of it. Jean

Thanks everyone.
Docone I'm not sure what you are talking about removing.
Jean, we've had an incredibly cool summer. I think it only got above 90 once and our nights are down around 60. The forecast is for it to continue. Good fire weather.
