While George set up the tent and cook station I began to dig a firepit in heavy clay soil.
No fire danger here, the clay was wet and hard-packed. He said, "Dig a wide circle, stand in the middle, and just work your way around."
Fortunately, squatting gives a good center of gravity so I didn't topple over.
The wet clay was mounded all around the rim. I mashed it with my fingertips.
Eventually George dug out the center berm, and built a fire.
Now, time to relax with coffee!
