On the subject of campfire starters, I'd like to ask a question:
We often have "fry days" on our trips where a few of the guys have deep fryers and we do chicken wings and other fried things. We usually set up around the cement pad where the picnic tables are. On our last trip I finally noticed how greasy the ground was when we finished cleaning up. I guess because we did it at our campsite last time and we don't always do it at our site. It really bothered me because I realized how this was going to attract ants and leave a not so nice spot for the next camper unless a good rain happens. So I'm determined from now on to bring cardboard to put down under the fryers to help clean this up. I was thinking that we could then burn the cardboard in the campfire if we were careful with it.
Does this sound advisable?
Thanks,

Yes, sounds good, and Thank You for thinking of doing that! You may want to cut up the cardboard into smaller pieces before burning.
I always try to leave our campsite nicer than it was when we first pull up.
