Bloktoberfest {1st Annual}

I'm feeling a touch nostalgic to be posting about attending "Bloktoberfest" knowing that just a couple short years ago we were at the real deal in Munich.  However, what Bloktoberfest may have lacked in liter beers and sauerkraut, it made up for in BONFIRE.

My brother in law (ever the big machine man) dug a 14ft x 14ft hole in the ground and used his excavator to fall entire trees directly into the bonfire while it was burning.  To top it off, someone dressed up as a white trash mullet man intermittently threw 5 gallon jugs of diesel onto said fire creating explosions like you wouldn't believe.  It was quite the {dare I say...white trash?} party of the century and, basically, a really good time. And looking back, I think we're all pretty lucky that a) no one got injured, and b) no one called the cops.

Thanks Ryan & Michelle for hosting.  Can't wait for next year.

There really are just not words to describe how big this fire was...
