Wait a sec, when I was a young boy scout my brother taught me a saying. It went, "White man make big fire, stand way back. Indian build little fire, get up close."
You're shattering everything I know about Indians!
Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?

We call it a "burn pile" actually. We burn what debris we have, and it tends to stay small due to something called "fire regulations."
We like it when the logging companies ged to do their burn piles though! They are allowed to have bigger ones and boy oh boy are they fun to watch!

I know t. Just funnin'.
We DO love our tree fires though. Half a dozen pines cut up in 6-8 ft logs, and you have a nice bonfire. That's all pine is good for anyway. LOL

I wondered if that was a Martin. Man, he paid a pretty penny for it, didn't he?

Now that you mention it, it sure DOES look like a (C.F.)Martin!
(C.F.) Martins are the "Excaliburs" of acoustic guitars for Country/Western and Bluegrass pickers.
Very high-priced instruments. Many are handed down in wills and estates...They're THAT good. I shoulda recognized it from the abilone-type binding. The headstock still amazes me though. Hollow - like a nylon-stringed classical headstock. Interesting.

I noticed the binding and the familiar looking headstock, but didn't want to guess because there are a lot of clones out there.
