Since yesterday was Mardi Gras, that makes today Ash Wednesday, so here's a photo of some ashes.

OK so that's a bit weak, I know – my wife often reminds me I'm not as funny as I think I am.

I took this a few weeks back when my son received his Arrow of Light, graduating from being a Cub Scout to a Scout. The last several times we went camping with the Cub Scout Pack we weren't able to have a bon fire. It was so dry in Texas last year that in most places only propane fires were allowed. Wood fires giving off burning embers were strictly verboten. It was good for the boys to once again have an opportunity to get covered in ant bites and bramble scratches collecting firewood. Oh wait, that wasn't the boys, that was me!
