Perhaps weâve been streaming too many History Channel episodes of â¶Vikings,â³ but thereâs something primal and comforting about gathering around a fire in this dark season. The magic might work even better in the 21st century than it did in the 10th. Those poor Vikings didnât have sâmores.
Nor did they have the sleek stainless steel fire pits from Solo Stoves introduced in early December at two Trustees of Reservations properties.
