For the fireplace in the home we
rented, anyway.
Part of the reason I look forward to
these little trips my family takes from time to time is that the
homes we often rent usually have fireplaces in them. The way I
remember these things from when I was quite a bit younger is that
said fireplaces were available, if not all year, then at least at the
times we were there, generally the spring, but more recently in the
fall.
The last couple times I’ve been out
there, though, things have been a little different. A couple years
ago, there wasn’t a fireplace at all, and this time, the one we had
was closed until October, which started about a week after we got
there. That said, a fire in the evening would have been nice once or
twice while we were there. Plus, I’d brought along some reading
material I’d printed off the Internet, thinking I’d be able to
just toss them on the fire when I was done with them and not have to
worry about bringing the scrap paper back home to drop in the recycle
bin when I got home.
But, like I was saying, it’s fine
that there wasn’t an option for having a fire. There was plenty of
other stuff to do, so it’s OK if that one option was, as WallieB26
might say, not meant to be. I’m sure I’ll have plenty to say
about how the trip was still pretty good regardless. See you soon
with that.
