I have two friends with a fire pit, and we have discussed hanging out around the fire pit on semi-nice days this winter just to see some human beings face-to-face now that we're being plunged into the misery of winter. But this does not look fun to me. Then there's the staff to think about--bad idea, folks.
Yup, things are extremely bad in my state right now, so the fire pit idea is on hold for now, but I think we'll do it on a few sunny days even if it's very cold. You know how it is once you get far enough into winter that a sunny day feels absolutely balmy even if it's below freezing.
A point of pride for those in the Midwest that above freezing is t-shirt weather in February. I should post in !diy@hexbear.net, but you can buy propane fire pit kits on Amazon, along with a Weber grill and some volcanic rock makes a very portable, aesthetically pleasing firepit. I have it on my balcony, great for even 20 minutes of hanging outside.

Yeah, I have a fire pit and have met people for a beer at parks, but not since it's gotten south of freezing, and not since the massive spikes

Oh interesting! My dad has a Weber grill--I might see if we can have some outdoor family hang out time this winter. Thanks for the suggestion!
