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.

This is an endless pot for the whole weekend people!

#HomeSteading staple food!!

I haven't heard from you in a bit, how are you my friend? Hope the campfire is doing well :)

I cannot get off my blog as much anymore, I am sorry my friend. I have just started saying that to people this last week, which I hate to do.

Btw that and other life stuff, I am kinda failing most days it feels LOL but I am doing my best.

Dang, that chili looks good Barry!

Fire cooked food like Miss Sara says / @saramiller -- is the best!

TY for dropping by again Lydon my friend.

Amen to that!

Of course Barry!

Oh man! That looks good.

I dried some of these out for our food this weekend here at the #SteemitCampfire!!!


Chili cooked over an open camp fire. mmmmm

I'm bringin the heat!!!!!

Thanks for the explanation. I really appreciate.

Thank you very much dear friend @barrydutton for the invitation, here finishing a hard week of work, with the new changes I must analyze my work proposal, since little has favored me, however are the rules of the game.
I'm happy to be here with you and to have met you.
I take the opportunity to greet all wish you a good night and an excellent weekend.
God bless you my dear friend, I wish you a very prosperous week.
I'm going with the meat and toasting with you

I am sorry I have not been on your blog lately, nor most peoples' -- I am struggling to get off my page much most days, it seems, along with my life stuff too.

I appreciate you and love you man.

Have a nice weekend.

You have nothing to apologize dear friend / @ barrydutton we are all the same, I for my part I have problem with my machine and interne.
I love you too.
God help you dear friend

Thanks my friend!

Jose, I am so glad you drop by every week, I have UV your comments, with my low voting power again LOL.

If you find time, stick around and tell us all these changes I have been wondering about them and you, for awhile now!!

Happy to be with your call, it is a real pleasure to support the work of my friend
Have a beautiful weekend

Steak and booze perfect for a campfire! Have a great weekend.

I’ve had an excellent and hot week here. Think they said today was going feel like 100 degrees, and I would have to agree with them. Pool stayed at 95-97 degrees all week with the solar heating off. At least we were getting rain reducing any wild fires, and no fire burning ban. Looking forward to have a nice camp fire for 4th of July.

I hit milestone of 100 followers this week and continue to grow some. Did 5 blogs since start of the last campfire; don’t think I’ll keep that up for next week but we shall see. Finished most of what I wanted, and just one more to work on over the weekend. Joined some discord channels this week and had some fun in them.

I hope everyone had a great week and an even better weekend!

UV your comment, you are killing it here, you might be one of the best new Steemians of the last decade here LOL.

You make such good comments, and a lot of them!

WTG and I am glad you are here with us.

Congrats on the milestone! Those are always so fun!

Good to hear rain is keeping wild fire hazards in check.

Thanks everyone for the great weekend.

Woowwwwwww LOL

  • memm'ed again!

I love it.

If you want a laugh, check out the posts/comments last nite and today with the elitist you cannot disagree with like others on here, on my BTS post, (not on my post) -- look at the latest strange behaviour, you cannot disagree with people on here, at times (whales, some, not all) - or you risk the spin and politics of the 1%.

Totally made me think of you today, and @ebryans and some others.

OK, coming back to the post to read some of these solid gold comments! LOL!

enjoy the weekend :)

Have a great weekend as well!

Oh great, I love campfires!! In our ecovillage, we do all our cooking over fire every day; I think it tastes way better than appliance cooking, and it's lots more fun. Our chef just served today's dinner of sausages, sautéed onions/peppers/mushrooms, and a nice hot quinoa salad with lots of colorful veggies! It's pretty sweet to be able to focus on the areas I really love, and at the end of the day someone else has prepared a high vibe feast to share with me because that's what they love to do!

It's been a nice week in these parts. Thanks for holding the space to come together in the digital realm, Barry!

Wow, I know more about you than some people but your writing remains so colourful like that salad you had and the writing is always so precise with you, conveying all your thoughts and message.

I love it!

(:

I hope you enjoyed that post I sent you today....

....Most Canadian thing you might read all year? LOL

Well realistically language itself is a limitation, so though my writing may be on point, I'm still not able to convey ALL my thoughts and message...nonetheless, I appreciate the sentiment :)

I'll check out your post!

(:

I’m drooling already. I swear a real flame just gets a better sauté on things. Have a great weekend.

good post, thank for supporting the steemit community, it is growing everyday!

Thanks for the kind words!!!

Steem On here all weekend long LOL

Am having a friend over for an actual 'camp'fire tomorrow night. Weather is supposed be perfect. We got our much needed rain last night and today. My garden is glad for that!

Took a break from posting today, too. Lots of little distractions keeping me from concentrating.

It is great you are doing balanced stuff Deb....

Most Canadian thing you might read all year? LOL if you have time, it is a 2 min read - funny/edutainment I call it.

So company just left about an hour ago and we had a great time. I got the firepit going and we spent most of our visit outside. Hubby was working on grilling some potatoes (just a light coating of oil, then toss off to the side on the grill) and some chicken he'd had marinating since last night. Relaxing evening, good food, good conversation with cicadas singing in the background. Time well spent!


That post is a hoot! I think that's a pretty comprehensive list, although you can have Justin Whathizface back. Good job!

It is very late for me, I have been off Steemit for about 90 mins, monitoring the markets and making some moves.

If you find time, check out Lexikon's stuff I commented on - on his post hours ago, you will LOL.

He made a video and tied it to my Canada Day post today you commented on -- I tagged you knowing you would LOL at his comments and his kids/ Wolf's but said you had company, Nite Eddie.

I have both posts up and will check 'em out before bed. Looks like y'all were have some fun... ;~D

Thanks -- it was def. something funny and personal I know you would enjoy since they did it, and named me, and we are all friends.

I cannot get off my blog as much anymore, I am sorry my friend. I have just started saying that to people this last week, which I hate to do.

Btw that and other life stuff, I am kinda failing most days it feels LOL but I am doing my best.

I know I have said it before and you give me grace but I still feel bad.

Very nice, enjoy the smell of a real camp fire. I hope you have some goodies to cook over it.

We were just going to throw a couple potatoes in the coals, but hubby got crazy and now we have some chicken marinating in the fridge. I wasn't going to argue...

I am glad you have found it!

Some weeks are more active than others, for various reasons but this post runs all weekend, every weekend.

How can those of us in Africa participate?

You are already here doing it like I mentioned earlier in the post on a similar comment my friend!!

Welcome!!

We are here all weekend / every weekend long

Hello everyone. Thanks for the invite @barrydutton.

We are here all weekend / every weekend, thanks for coming - come visit and hang out and invite someone to come too!!

Great to see you here @knowledge1! Welcome!

Hey, thank you! How is your weekend?

It is going quite well! My wife and I went hiking with some friends in the Kentucky woods. We had a great time. How is your weekend? image

Hiking in the woods sounds great! That picture is so beautiful. I can imagine how much fun that must have been. Wish I could get away.

My weekend was a quiet one, spent at home. I worked a little too. Had some deadlines to meet.

A quiet weekend is good. You had a more productive weekend than me, haha.

Productivity goes down when you burn yourself out. We all need a break, I haven't had one in ages. I feel like going away some place as beautiful as the one in your picture, without my laptop, but with some good books. :)

Now that is my kind of getaway. Some good books, tasty drinks, maybe a hammock, and nature to soothe me while I am there. :)

Hi, fellow Steemians. It's now 21:10 here in the UK and I'm sat back enjoying the warmth of the steemitcampfire while sitting at work doing the second of three 12 hour night shifts. Bummer! Hope everyone is chilled out and those of you in the good old US of A are all set to enjoy your hols. Have a good one.

Canada Day where I am -- post is up on that you might like and laugh at LOL.

I won't drop the link, but check that out.

I am glad you took time for us here today.

Thanks and come back anytime, every weekend- long!!

I may or may not have been stockpiling fireworks in the ever growing arms race with the neighbors.

Who has the nuclear option?

Better question is: who’s going fire the first one? Usually we have a third party called Fire Ban in Effect. This year he did not self-invite himself. I’m predicting Monday 3 am. Naturally, I prefer to still have friends after this so I’ll wait till at least Tuesday 10pm. As far as the winner we leave that up to the fire department to determine that.

Last house still standing wins! :-D

Hello there and good morning Barry and Steemites, hope everyone is have a great weekend. Mine pretty much just started. Worked yesterday and that made 64 hours just at the one job, so its been a hectic week and Im having a well deserved steak dinner tonight. I just got out a blog this morning and have two to get out, one another poem and the other not to give away will defiantly be interesting... Just to touch on, my money has been down since the fork though with more followers and comments, so not to extactic about that. Any others care to add to their expericences since than? Well I have a million and one things to do so in short, everyone have a great rest your weekends. Have something in the works for you Barry that I believe you'll enjoy. Till the next time my friend.

Enjoy the rest of your days off! As far as payouts being lower; markets did bleed out all that money. Everyone voting power being worth more, and having fewer votes caused people to rethink how they use upvotes. Minnows like me don’t have a voting slider so I’m very picky about where my few upvotes I have go. While, trying to stay at or above 80% voting power.

Then there are just the people who auto spam follow everyone. More followers is not always more eyeballs on what you blog about. Accounts that are rather inactive I see still grow every day, and some of them have over 75 followers. You might think that’s not a lot but they joined in June like I did. I recently went into my own following list, and removed a few for being spammers either in blogs with zero content, or resteem 50+ a week type of accounts among other reasons. Such things where preventing me from even seeing much. Some of these people where flooding my feed with 20+ items a day.

Then you have things like the warmer weather. People are not currently trapped in their homes from a blizzard. Some are out enjoying beaches, camping, and just being away from electronics in the first place. As a result, some are just spending less time on Steemit.

I’m not a daily blogger so I lose one to five people a day. At same time, I can gain just as many. When I look into them some of them follow so many people my random blog here or there has a low chance in being seen in the flood called their feed. Since people no longer want to go below 80% or 60% depending on how they view things. My number of organic upvotes has dropped dramatically. Most notability in comments, and I expect it to remain this way till some changes are made.

I have been telling people the sorries, lately, the last few weeks, it has been getting harder and harder to visit my friends other blogs here, so I apologize.

I am not sure about all the drops, bur everyone is noticing -- except the same people who usually always make the trending pages, no matter what or how many things they post, so, basically the same issues as before.

Be well mon frere!

(:
