Pyro


Almost since we have been told not to play with fire we have. For me being told not to do something makes me want to do it all the more. Since I was taught how to make a fire when I was six I have always liked to play with it. Since then I have learned how to have fun with fire while still being safe. I have also learned how to make fire several different ways. I can start a fire with one match, a magnify glass, and with flint and steel.

My favorite is starting a fire with flint and steel because when a spark catches on a piece of char cloth the only way that car cloth will go out is with water. This weekend I went camping and my friends and I built a HUGE fire. The flames were about seven feet tall and we could feel the heat from twenty yards away. Another fire story I have is when I was messing around with a magnifying glass and started a bonfire on my driveway...Some times I get a little carried away. Fire is dangerous so you should only play with it if you know what your doing. Also make shore no adults see you. My sister was playing around with a candle and lit a paper candle on fire. She didn't know what to do until she burnt her thumb and melted part of our carpet. As far as I know she hasn't played with fire again. Really all I'm trying to say in this blog is, it's O.K to "experiment" with fire just don't catch your house, neighbors house, or a forest on fire.
