Tents!
Not so long ago, when our power went out for the weekend, we entertained ourselves by digging our old tents out of the barn (completely untouched by mice, much to our delight!) and putting them up (much to Bastien’s delight!). We had a little tent race, Jim and I. Unfortunately, I lost. By minutes. How did this happen? After all, I’m the one who taught him how to put up a tent in no time flat.

But, here’s where I pause to show you what happened to Jim’s tent within the hour of installation…

Who’s the better outdoorsman now?
He was none too happy that I wanted to document this. My tent, of course, is still standing strong. Two weeks (and several storms) later.
