Chris my husband and I have always been outdoor people. We decided to build a place that represented the essence of who we are at our home in Te Awamutu New Zealand. With out any ideas of what we were doing, we started digging up the back yard. (yes people thought we were mad)
We knew it had to have a fire pit, but the adventure grew and we finally finished what I call our haven. A place where you can sit peacefully or entertain with friends. It took us 7 months of hard work, but every moment was worth the experience.
While digging the floor, there in the centre, we found an old fire pit. It was a moving experience to know that many years earlier some one else had the same idea as we, to sit and warm themselves beside a fire under the night sky.
We finally got to light the fires, sit in the thermal hot tub, eat pizza and look above at the night stars.
