COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EVERY WEEKEND LONG SERIES!!!


Weekends are slow, meant for Fun, Relaxing with Family & Friends, and this is what we are here. Leave the Flags & Problems at the Office. Meet up for Anything Goes, Friendly, Encouraging Weekend Fun, Talks and Friendship here every Friday Nite through Sunday Nite.

Blogging on Weekends can be slow as we know. Around the Campfire here we will be respectful to each other, have some fun, play some games, eat some food, have some drinks (Hydration is super important!) - and treat this EVERY weekend series like a nice weekend getaway from the race.

Goals: Encourage each other. Kindness. Community Building. Welcoming all Steemians with no Class Distinction. Friendship. Relationship Building. Food. Fun. Music. Campfire Shenanigans.

Visit my Page Fridays through Sunday and poke around, chat with people, have fun!!

1 Post on my Page Every Friday Nite runs for the whole weekend - Share the link on others pages where you feel you can and invite people. New people! Older Steemians! Everyone is welcome!

1 page to visit. | 1 simple Hashtag to find/use/share. | 1 Platform. | 1 Family.

What I'm sharing in replies on Steemit so it does not offend or spam people

I started a new Weekend Steemit Campfire Series ! - it just was posted.

Check that out, I am trying to still find ways to build community and love and kindness here.

On my page every Friday nite - Runs for the whole weekend til Sunday nite,

#SteemitCampFire !!


Link Dropping Diverting People Elsewhere:

--

Please do not drop links to blog posts at the fire diverting people away from the purpose here - gathering people in one place, this is not a post promotion place just because it is a high engagement post.

--

The last while of everyone dropping links on the #SteemitCampFire - is getting a bit much. I do not mind the odd one, but this kinda can deflect the purpose here - gathering people in one place and not too much diversion elsewhere.

Hope you are not upset but it has been worsening. We all do it from time to time, but a high engagement post is more prone to this. Please keep this in mind.

I am sitting here making this YUGE pot of food for everyone over the fire!!!!!


I don't even know what a YUGE is! Geez these Canadians and their strange eating rituals :)

Hahahaha!

You are everywhere! That's YUGE too buddy!

(:

mmm, looks like a tasty meal

Out in the bush over the fire, we are here, where are you LOL

I am so behind on comments these days.

Come hang out!

I'm always around ;)

That looks good! That's quite a kettle, there!

We just chuck it all in and hope people show up and have a good time here LOL

  • it was great to hear from you again the last day or so!

I can barely get off my own blog much anymore. Sorry for that my friend.

No worries about getting off your own blog! We all can barely keep up, anymore, here on Steemit!

Looks delicious! Just skipping by to say hello! Hope you had a marvelous weekend :)

Bah, my 10 pm deadline to be offline is here now! Booooooooo, LOL

I have been thinking about you, it means a lot you stop in to check on me my friend.

There is a chance myself and a whale might

saunter

--

over to your way in the not too distant future, is what I was gonna tell yooooooo

Have a nice week and it is truly nice when you visit my page sister, thank you,.

Did you win a turn at the @htooms wheel? Or is someone else doing something similar now...I keep wondering if any other whales will give that a try :)

It's good that you have an online time limit, I should make one of those...though not while I'm involved in a challenge LOL.

Talk soon!

I have not --- IDK why but not long after we met online, he just stopped talking to me - voting my posts, etc etc. I replied to him a few times, commented on his posts and the usual, but then nothing.

I think maybe 2 votes from him the last 4 mths??

I asked him nicely what was wrong a couple times but no reply, no email etc etc.

--

If you have a JAXX wallet or thinking of it, or know people with one etc -- you will want to check the post up on my page just now. It is pretty huge news and there is nobody talking about this considering the market share they have and names involved....

Talk to you soon, it is nice hearing from you anytime.

Well there was a period where htooms was being downvoted on everything he did, and he made a post saying he was sorry that he couldn't respond to comments, but they would be downvoted bringing his rep further down in the dumps.

When he was finally left alone he just launched right into the giveaway his power thingie, so he rarely votes himself.

My husband might have a JAXX wallet, he's the one who deals with these things :) I will take a look and tell him about it also.

It's been a kind of 'blah' week. No visits (so far) this weekend, so I'm going to try and get motivated to do a couple small projects in the yard - one of which is more progress on the firepit project. I sure would like to have that finished!

Keep us updated with firepit project! I use to have metal pit like that as well but stop using the lid that came with it. Stop us from putting all the wood we wanted into the pit.

@enjar, thanks for the help, the one flag where needed, and the comments tending to people here my man!!!

Will do! There's only a small portion left to clean and organize, but it's going to be very labor intensive. I'm psyching myself up to tackle it because I know I'm going to hurt like crazy afterwards. Lol! Ah, well, that's what aspirin is for.

This pit does have a grate and a screen 'lid'. Normally, I just leave them off altogether unless I'm cooking or trying to contain sparks. Otherwise, let it blaze!

I love your yard updates, it has been a highlight, watching you transform that week by week. It has been great.

Great photo there by you Eddie, thanks!

I have a funny food blog post up if you want a laugh LOL

Thanks, bud! I just keep pecking away at it. Eventually, it'll be maintenance friendly again. It sure feels good to see concrete, measurable progress. Makes the aches worth it. ;~D

I honestly want to come visit you and the pooch and sit in that awesome lovely area you have worked on Eddie. It has crossed my mind like a dozen times, it makes me smile, seeing it now.


Check out my Poloniex post from today if you want.... It is my best on them and their problems by far, it is solid Edu-tainment with facts!!!

Oh I'm looking forward to this, guys!
Steemit has to be covered in the media more and more - in whatever way! Sounds like you found a fantastic partner for this. Good luck! I'm looking forward to your updates!
AWESOME POSTT
FOLLOWD ,UPVOTED A RESTEEMED
WISH U UPVOTE THIS COMMENT

Actually you never bothered to Resteem this at all, so that was a lie.

And your whole comment tab is full of this spammy comment you make with everyone.

No vote. No follow.

No kidding.

Thanks for calling this guy out. Sad trend I been noticing all over the place. Thankfully Steemit has a way of weeding out these kinds of people over time. They just don’t get it, and think there a giant pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for being so dishonest.

#Flags

LOl.

People should follow your example @enjar, hard working blogging dude you are, with real comments!!!

Thanks for helping me here. Flagging the spammers on this post and chatting with everyone.

The other fellow you flagged for spam, was given 24 hours to remove and reply that -- he did not.

My Upvote at partial vote strength easily bumped him up 4 notches to 34 rep, and my flag I promised him --- actually bumped him way back down to 28. Further if I had more more power left.

I UV him first to see what it would do and then gave the flag, and removed the UV.

I am losing patience with the spammers. Thank you for the help.

Ya, something more needs to be done about it. I’ve even contacted a witness about a possible scam a guy was setting up shop on Steemit. Reply back was “I don’t have a policy on that” Thankfully whoever it was (forgot name) got flagged by a bunch of people.

I just gave you a full power UV/ out of what I have left, that will help your rep and there is a nice chunk for ya.

I had a lot of help on the way here, I DAILY remember this.

I cannot lie, I hoped that vote would MOVE your rep. up but I don't have enough in the tanks LOL

It did help you though!! It just did not MOVE you visibly here but if you check the blockchain, you will see those numbers move quite a bit before/after.

You have left me speechless. Thank you :)

Not likely bro, look at all your comments here daily!

LOL!!!!!


We are called to encourage one another and you are doing good things. People notice.

I like to catch people doing something right.

Yeah, don't pay attention to this guy @barrydutton. He does that everywhere. I just checked him out because he left his bullshit on my post as well.

I've seen him do it before, I usually am reasonable to people the first time, after that, not always so much.

What......check my blog out....and i followed u and upvoted u....
It is happening bcoz i am living in internet prone area where the net fluctutes time to time...
No kidding

We like honest bloggers here. Be flagged and have your acct ruined if that is your goal, cuz it will happen!!!

I'm bringing my snuggie

I can only hope those are flame resistant!

LOL!!!!

That is one of the best replies on this series in all the 10 weeks I have run this LOL!!

#Snuggies

This week is ending rough with more crypto bloodbath. Shall I continue holding? We haven't even gotten within 3 weeks of the UA Soft Fork. Thoughts on holding right now, or selling and waiting to get back in at lower lows?

I hope the weekend is much better for you. I try and not watch the markets too much. Something I need get into at some point. So many alt cryptocurrencies out there! I get most of what the markets are doing from barrydutton he seems to find the silver lining in some of the worst days out there!

I suspected the 60 days prior to the BTC HF would be rough.

for lots of reasons and lots of coins but the volatility is really shaking up the top 20/50 coins too. I am trying to ID trends in the charts.

Coins you believe in are going to be on sale, I actually blogged on this last nite!!!

Sounds like a great plan! 👍

Glad you are here with us!!! What's on your mind? I have a pile of food cooking here over the coals for everyone!!!

Welcome. I noticed you have tried follow 4 follow. Not the best tactic to go on for growing your audience on a platform like Steemit. I hope you focus more on joining communities, and interacting with blogs like this one that are set up for community engagement. Otherwise, you just end up with a bunch of people following you who are not looking to follow you for you they are looking to follow you for your follow back.

.

Please try and go back and delete this image --- you may have to insert a . or something in the space, to replace it, thanks a lot.

just did^_^

Good job. Removing flags now. Thanks for being good about this.

We asked you in the post to not drop links, and I support Omar, as people know - but can you please remove these links?

Thanks

okay sure thing! my appologies

did i do it right?

The image is still there, but my steempower has it hidden, but I will remove my flag for you, because you tried and have been respectful.

I would hope you don't spam posts, and are more mindful of this stuff in the future, on this platform.

Thank you, I love this platform. I wouldn't want to do anything to jeopardize it. This is really a great video I worked hard on to put together. I guess i was just searching for too much exposure too fast. Im a huge fan of Omar, I didn't mean any disrespect:)

I have donated many times to Omar and shared a lot of his work and tried to help his exposure too, I understand and it is good you understand the issues, here. I appreciate what you mean here. I get it.

Thank you again 🙏☺️kindly :)

You are very welcome, you handled this well.

I get spammed a lot, and there are 250 000 accts here now, some days, you just have enough.

Good job by you, handling this nicely.

Flagged at full strength for not respecting the rules written in the post and this affects your reputation. I will remove the flag on this if you remove the post as requested. Don't drop links on posts that ASK you upfront not to drop links. Disrespectful, you likely never read my post anyways and don't care.

hi my apologies, I will remove it immediatly! I did not mean any harm, sorry again

hi sorry im not too sure how i remove it?

Nothing better then a good ole campfire with vegan marshmellows

Show us those vegan hippy marshmallows!!!

Amazing. It's great what the community of Steemit does. I would like to organize or participate in such an event. On the other hand I live in France. I'll follow you because I love what you do. Thank you for sharing.

You are here, at the fire with us, right now!!!

Just like here sitting and watching while my marshmallow is melting since I forgot to bring cheese );. Anyone cup of tea? :)

Yes, please, if you would like to drop some tea here for us, that would be great!!!!

We have not seen @neoxian in awhile but he usually likes a nice cup of tea at times!

@barrydutton thanks for the invite.

I always bring tea to parties, so here you go @dianargenti @neoxian @barrydutton. I'm more of a green tea fan...

giphy.gif

Love Tea. I'm a black tea leaf girl lol

I like it when I am 3 days behind on replies and all you guys look after each other when I head off to bed in the EST here.

Nice work.

No problem lol :) Thanks

Well, here you go:

giphy (1).gif

:)

I like it when I am 3 days behind on replies and all you guys look after each other when I head off to bed in the EST here.

I appreciate that a lot.

Thank you dear. I love tea time. I'm having a cup as we speak lol Cheers. Have you ever heard of the Stash tea company. They have thousands of variety's good deals in clearance. I use to have a huge variety of tea from all over but it has depleted greatly over the years :( I'm not to far from Disney. They have a Disney pantry in Disney Springs that has a bunch of yummy loose tea. Chocolate, tropical all kinds of good stuff. I just posted my second travel blog of Disneys light parade in Walt Disney World.

I'm fairly close to Disneyland on the opposite coast. I'm not sure if they have a similar place here, but I'll have to check one of these days...

Awesome. I've been to Disneyland to :) I did a world wind tour of California. Yosemite, Hurst Castle, San Fransisco Alcatrez Island, Winchester mystery house, Queen Mary Ship, a little bit of the Giant Sequioas and couldn't forget Disneyland lol. Disneyland is a lot smaller then Disney World but they do have some really cool rides that Disney world doesn't have like Alice and Wonderland, Pinocchio, Indiana Jones ride, California Screamer, Mad Toad Ickabad. Its the small world is better there to. I still want to go back there's so much more to see and not enough time lol

What is this magic and why can’t I stop watching it!

:)

I have never been much of a tea drinker. Is green-tea y our favorite?

Yes, definitely. I'm picky about it, actually. ;)

Me to picky picky. lol :) Black tea for me like it strong. Caffieeeeene. Looks like you have a tea partner. Is is tea time yet lol

It's always tea time! I opted for some iced tea today since it was so ridiculously hot here...

Yes I pretty much live off of sweet Ice tea and hot tea in the morning. Lol. It's inexpensive. I usually get 100 tea bags for $1.18. I was drinking soda all the time but its so bad for you.

you are a tea snob! LOL

@cali-girl

(:

Yes, a proud tea snob! So much so that I don't drink coffee. :D

Me either. Yuck. I like the way it smells hate the taste lol :)

LOL.

Check out my Poloniex post from today if you want.... It is my best on them and their problems by far, it is solid Edu-tainment with facts!!!

Then let's give @nioxian a hot cup of tea, with cinnamon for good smell. I wonder who would like to sing around the fire

We can all sing together. Which song?

Rolling to the deep let's start next camp fire @cali-girl for now we have to rehearse first hahaha. You start and I'll follow, looking forward to it let's do it, let's do it together! Hahaha

Cool. Looking forward to these series ! It's gonna be fun :)

Spread the word, using the # here -- we are here all weekend, stick around, pop in and out, we are glad to have you.

Another beautiful week in Florida I hope everyone enjoys there weekend. I was really lazy this week so get use the weekend to get some things done.

weekendcampfire.jpg

Pexels edit with lunapic

Really nice my man!

If you want to fire one up that has the #SteemitCampfire branding on it, we can re use it here from time to time!

I keep telling myself I got check out other sites people have shared with me for photo editing. Issue is lunapic text is always too small to be nice, clean, and readable. Whenever I get around to checking out a few other places and making sure they can used for commercial usage I’ll keep this in mind. Another issue is there is no clear answer if they are “no attribution required.” While they do state “free for commercial use” it’s a bit of a muddy answer.

Thanks everyone for the great weekend. See you next time!!!

sweet! been awhile since i saw these in the feed, hows it going barry? hope u have a good weeknd :)

Just walked in the door and got this post up, I am glad you stopped by man. I am going to try to drive by vote all your posts again and drop by a couple to check in too, I promise!!

Drive by voting session complete!

LOL

This looks like fun :)

hi jenntheangel, how is your weekend going?

Dang I just sent you this Yuge reply and it didn't post. Second one this morning. Hmm.

Well we just had a pretty good rain and lightning storm here. The rain has my pool a mess. Hopefully I will get it cleaned up and be able to post some pics at the pool for the weekend. I got a bank owned home on auction that was half remodeled. The bedrooms and bathrooms are done. We're remodeling the kitchen. We put a electric fireplace in the living room and another one is going in the master bedroom. We made a temporary firebox outside on the patio with some scrap cylinder blocks. We want to put in a outdoor fireplace when we get to the outside. I love campfires and camping. We came from Colorado to Florida about a year ago. I'm hoping to get my second post done this weekend. I was going to do one on the Disney Electric Parade. I'm a bit of a Disney addict. lol.

How is your weekend going? What part of Florida are you in. We're in Hernando county about 20 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. If my reply posts twice sorry. I don't know what happened to my first reply. I was trying to remember everything I said when I had to retype it lol. You may get two lol.

Ay, been noticing some issues with connecting to the site, and posting as well. They just can’t handle our sunshine, or as it feels some times “thunder capital of the world.” I’m about 30 minutes from Daytona Beach. Don’t go down there as often as I should.

We got some giant clouds over our pool right now. Going go out swimming in about an hour, and I bet the sun will shine when I do. People always joke about kidnaping me, and brining me along places to keep the sun shining! Sometimes it works other times-- rain. I hope things clear up so someone from this state can share the beautiful weather with the community. No camera myself or I would have by now as the sunsets have been great.

Sounds like you guys made a very wise purchase with the house. Buying a house from the bank I’ve been told can be a giant pain but well worth it if you can fix things up yourself. Good luck remolding the kitchen that sounds like a handful.

I’ve been to Disney a few times. I am more of a zoo kind of person. Last time I was down there was to check out the Harry Potter exhibit with some family members. Have not been back since to do the train ride they added in for that (not sure if that’s up and running yet or what.) I have a feeling sooner or later will be back when ever some family members come down to visit from Minnesota.

My admin on my group on FB lives outside of Daytona. Small world. I think its south beach. The train is running at universal. Looks really cool like in the movie. Someone Youtubed it. I love Harry Potter to. I have all the movies and went to the drive in to see Fantastic Beasts and seen it again in Downtown Disney Springs. There going to be releasing like 5 more movies in the next couple years. I bought my daughter all harry potter stuff for Christmas this year. Feel free to send some sunshine my way lol I could use some :) My mother sent me a pass for Mickeys Halloween Party this year. I can't wait and definitely will be making a blog for it. I just posted the light parade in travel. My second post. We've been here for a year and haven't been able to visit Disney or universal yet. We go to Disney springs all the time and walk around. It's free with lots of entertainment. Nice meeting you. I love this site and community. Still learning and feeling my way around.

I hope the clear skies are heading your way. Was clouds and thunder all around me while outside. With just a bit of sunrays and thinning of clouds right above me haha.

All clear and sunny now :) Magic

Nice! Was nice to meet you. Have a wonderful week.

I lived down in the St. Pete area for a short time, boated a bunch on the Gulf. Played some hockey down there, you have to drive an hour at least to find a rink LOL

I'm not to far from St. Pete. Love the warm Gulf water. Its like a big bathtub lol. Haven't seen a rink anywhere lol

Well, I lived on the water at Madeira Beach. I played semi pro beach v-ball in my younger days and retired at 32. Similar for my baseball.

I had to drive to Ulmerton/19th wayyy up the coast North -- towards Clearwater there, and there are 2 sets of rinks within a few blocks of each other, I would play there Friday nites.

All the Americans like to take runs at the Canadian they heard was coming to town LOL

3 of us Canadians would duck all that nonsense and load up 1 team and crush them every weekend LOL

Funny story lol. I have houses and some property in Michigan. Lived there for over 20 years. Big Redwing fans. Visited Toronto a few times when I was younger. I remember going on a field trip to a spaghetti factory.

Somewhere on my FB there is a long buried album from my trip to Nashville winter of 2003. Hung out w wings fan bc they know hockey and are basically Canadians but for the accent LOL.

Wings fans trek down to Smashville EN MASSE to see Preds games.

I had comp tickets with some of my connections, and had a great time with the Michigan folks.

I am about 50 kms or so dead East of the downtown Torontostan core with the dome and rink, etc.

My week wasunt really the best one , some broken dreams some sad expiriense , but on end the good is always more than the bad ! Have nice weekend guys !

Hugs, I hope the weekend will be nice weather for you! I have been trying to get out at least 30 mines every day.

I was holwf day out today , was nice :)

I was wondering how you were doing. DM me thru chat if you want to talk.

I hope you are doing OK @patelincho

Sure i am really ok , just some small personal issues but everyting can be fixed .

Well, I am still thinking about you. I am glad you have some support systems in place from all I have seen on here lately.

  • have a nice week my friend

Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Here's what's on my mind. I was searching the #mushrooms and #foraging tags to curate for the @foraging-trail, using the steemit.com/created/foraging, for example, to look for new posts with those tags. And something is not right. It shows the last 7 ays of posts and then jumps all the way back to 7 or 10 months ago! No sign of any other post even though I know there have been lots and lots of posts made with those tags. Any ideas about what's up?

IDK about that - but it makes sense.

I have always wondered if certain tags are coded out on here, to only show the ones Steemit wants shown.

It has crossed my mind many many times esp. when you search the tags section for stuff like many of us do and actually USE or make tags / posts / comments with tags.....

and they never show.

--

Check out my Poloniex post from today if you want.... It is my best on them and their problems by far, it is solid Edu-tainment with facts!!!

This just happened recently. I know you used to use the #bushcraft tag. The same thing is happening there. It goes back 6 days, and then jumps to months ago. It's going to be a mess if tags don't really mean anything past the 7 days. Then Steemit actually becomes less functional than Twitter! :O

Yep, you are on point with your concerns here I think.

Its to quiet in here today. Where is everyone lol hunting wrabbits

I have a huge post up I had to work on today, on Poloniex exchange issues, you may want to read that since you are learning, you told me.

I know some days/nites are slower here than others, I find if I do not babysit the post and really spend hours typing away, commenting, trying to engage people, people just forget the post after one reply.

Thanks @barrydutton you've been great :)

Aye, I like hearing nice comments LOL, thanks

It’s the summer, I fear they all have suffered harsh sunburns and cannot type atm!

lol

I'll look out for this next weekend. Look forward to chatting with you all. How could I have missed this for the last 10 weeks!

LOL

I am not sure but that honestly put a big smile on my face just now, honestly LOL

Hope you are well.

I am still steeming on as hard as I can putting out good stuff.

If you have a JAXX wallet or thinking of it, or know people with one etc -- you will want to check the post up on my page just now.

Talk to you soon, it is nice hearing from you again HH.
