Bonfire

Oh, something else I forgot to mention. On Friday night, my roommate and I decided to had a bonfire that we set up. We invited people who invited other people. So there were quite a few of us. Everyone followed me to a spot I know about by Utah Lake. I also had all the pallets for burning (yeah I know thats not exactly legal). When we got there, the lake wasn't completely frozen over and covered in snow--something I wasn't expecting.

There were people camped out with tents set on the lake. So we decided to build our bonfire about 50 feet out on the lake. Yeah it sounds like a bad idea, but we did it anyway. Surprisingly the bonfire hardly melted the ice at all; I guess that was because it was so cold outside. Some of us decided to walk farther out onto the lake. We walked about a football field distance out onto the lake. Then some fog rolled in to where we couldn't see well. It was a little freaky being on a perfectly flat, white ground and thick fog, and then see people appear out of the fog right in front of you. We were able to find our way back because we could still see the bonfire.

So everything went well. The ice didn't ever break, we got to experience some fun stuff, and the sheriff that came didn't do anything to us for burning pallets. He only told us not to burn pallets and clean it up when we were done. We never cleaned it up. I'm okay with it sinking into the lake when the ice melts in the summer. Utah Lake is the nastiest lake I've ever seen anyway, so I don't care much. Probably only alien, or severely deformed fishes could live in there I bet, lol.

I would have taken pictures but my battery was dead.
