:. Playing with Fire

Rachael and I spend part of the recent holiday weekend camping with friends from Lakeland.

Jason and Twila Lahey invited us for an evening of guitar playing, song singing, and fire breathing fun.

It was a warm night at Lake Jacomo, but a fun time was had by all.

Jason's
sister brought her boyfriend with her to visit the family and together they delighted the campground (if not the authorities) with a performance of their fire breathing and fire dancing skill.

It was an awesome display and sparked the interest of other campers who joined us to watch.

As they performed
they explained how they learned their techniques and what safety precautions they were taking.

They capped the performance off by teaching Jason how to breathe fire. While he wasn't as accomplished as our professionals, he did manage to get the hang of it rather quickly.

As Jason has a new trick in his repertoire, we're sure this will somehow work its way into a Lakeland youth event in the future.
