The pavers on the bottom are not. So i put fire resistant bricks down and sand.
The first burn went well.
If you can't step over the wood trimming you may be a bit slow. If your drunk then will laugh at you. If you trip and fall in the fire we will laugh at you then call 911.
3 people can easily sit in front of the fire. And my grass doesn't care if you stand or place a chair on it.
Just saying, who's coming over?
Last owner of my house had 3 dogs grass was horrible I am working on it. Any tips experts?

Where do you live? If you live in the Northern US (you get winter), then I would do this:
First to make lawn not horribly ugly:
Purchase decent weed and feed fertilizer
spray lawn wet and then apply with spreader in early evening
spray lawn again if dry next evening
2 weeks later:
Mow lawn very short
Purchase aerator and aerate entire lawn
Purchase large bag of shademaster lawn seed(it's a mix of blue kentucky etc, good for sun but also shade)
Purchase enough top soil to cover your lawn roughly in a 1/2" of soil
Wet Lawn with hose (do in late afternoon)
cover lawn with seed using hand spreader
Cover seed with topsoil, use a rake to even it out
Lightly soak the soil to give it weight and keep it still.
Water every day in the early evening if dirt is dry (put finger in dirt, if it sticks to your finger at all it's ok, if it falls away it needs water)
in 2-3 weeks you will begin to see baby lawn, do not mow until the lawn is a good 4 inches tall.
Mow every 5 days or when grass is 4" tall.
