daily life: setting up a home

unbag tent. lay flat. put poles together [this is andrea's favorite part! it's always a wrestling match and great to watch. but stand clear!]


attach poles to tent.


attach tent clips to poles to hold tent up.


always double check just incase a run-away trailer goes soaring across your tent!


shake dirt and grit to one end.


stake out tent so it doesn't droop on you. also incase a wind kicks up while you're away.


the hatcket is not a toy! put it down!


fly time! the rain fly keeps the rain off of you. we put it on while we're away, but take it off when we sleep....unless it's raining.


home sweet home! or maybe: tent sweet tent! we like sleeping in our tent more than our home. we sleep better, have a better view of the stars, and you can't beat the night sounds!
try it...you'll like it!
