Basalt Fire Pit · the log-cabin front-yard placement (a0-0)

The just-bought basalt drum (3′ across · 16″ tall · ~1,100 lb, propane ring) placed where the founder called it: centered with 4 Adirondack chairs in the “U” the granite cobble path draws in the log-cabin front lawn (zone 6.1.14 frontage). One variable per track: the apron sweep under the pit (his menu + a designer option), the rectangular granite steppers set into the rough path (“#1”), heroes day/dusk-fire/rain against the preserved cabin, and a chair-finish strip. Every frame carries the real drum from the delivery photos, the real path course, and the real porch. Rendered on Nano Banana Pro @2K. Podium in 00-INDEX.md.
