It's a really nice house - should be fun for the first while, since they're about the only ones in the neighborhood so far! I can't wait to see what it will look like when it's all put together!
Congrats, Mar and Jesse!
We went camping on Friday night at Redman Campgrounds, and after some annoying confusion about the campsite hosts giving our campsite away, we settled into a group campsite with some nice people who let us stay in their area. They boys set up the fun figant tent, not bothering to put on the rain fly because hey, it's July! It's perfectly clear and warm! Our mistake... 2-2:30 in the morning, we were all rudely awakend by pelting rain on our faces (Mar and Jesse too, not having used their rain fly either)! Mike and Steve worked as fast as they could to get the rain fly up, which was tough because it has all these little strings that were all tied in a knot ('Little knot here! I'll let you work on that.') so Mar stood there with a light up while they worked. The rain had all but stopped, but they finally got the rain fly on the tent - and just in the nick of time! Almost as if on cue, it started pouring rain again, right when Mike and Steve stepped back into the tent and zipped it up. Most of our stuff was soaked, and poor Steve left his sleeping bag open while he worked on the rain fly with Mike, so his bag was soaked when he got back in it! Aww, fun times camping! The tent is way fun - the room on the left (or, as it's now called, 'Mel's wing') sleeps 2 people, and the room on the right (or, 'the Boys' wing') sleeps up to 5 people, and there's a 'common area' between them. Fun!
