Pig on a Spit Roasting.

Has anyone ever roasted a pig on a spit over a charcoal fire?   We would like to do this for the Fourth of July.  Years and years and years ago my parents did this for a large family picnic.  My nephew and I would like to try this so any advice is appreciated.

Friday night Bun and I and her 9 year old cousin 'camped out' on the island in my sisterinlaws camper.  It was very last minute planning at 8:30pm so we had the bare neccesitys.  Mainly sheets and matches for the fire, water, bacon and eggs for breakfast.  And bug spray.  Which I don't like to use but we did use it.

 

They had a great time catching fireflies and looking at the stars.  I would have prefered my own bed but time goes fast and I reallay want to make Bun's summer special.  And as this was at home it was free!  We have made a list of things we need to procure for our next campout which I think will be on Monday night. 

 

The highlight of Friday's campout was Saturday morning at 5:00 with the rooster crowing on the other side of the pond was a flock of wild turkeys strolling past the camper when I took Noah our little toy poodle outside.   Bun is going to make a list of the different wildlife we see on these camping 'trips' this summer.

What fun! I'm sure she will remember this one for years! Like you say the free ones, are usually the ones that are remembered forever! LOL!
