A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words (Or, Exactly Fifty): Only You Can Prevent Forest Fires and Assassinations
What I see: a big blue and brown tent in what may be a backyard instead of a campground because of the proximity of nearby houses, with a pile of suitable firewood, but the grass is very high.
What I feel -- I live in California where fires are common. That high grass makes me nervous ... but maybe all is not as it appears!
The assassin master looked at the photo, and sighed.
“This was a trap,” he said. "You young agents have more screen time than time outdoors, so you don't realize."
“But how do you know, sir?”
“No grass cleared to actually build a fire. Our target was mocking us, all along.”

My little girl, Sofia, loved it when we took the mattresses out in the garden in summer time, we enjoyed the clear skies. Matthew, my son, has his little tree house, a couple of times we have spent the morning there.
It does seem like a very fun thing to be doing in the summertime!
Interesting entry. I never clear the grass before I start a fire,,, a heap of earth around it or stones and circle of water and no open fire if there's wind.
California is a nightmare for fire -- high winds, hills -- so we do go the extra mile because one mess-up can take out millions of acres in some cases.
That's understandable and a wise thing to do.
This is giving "Mission: Campfire Impossible".... and I am here for it 😄
YES -- you got it! It was a bit of a send up on that whole idea ... can't you just hear the music?
