erecting the bell tent

clearly, an adventure in and of itself.
building the deck: there was lots of work preceding the pallet assembling...leveling the ground, moving large rocks, carrying pallets up our walk way into the ravine....yeah, i don't get cred for all that.
you wouldn't think it would be that difficult to collect empty cardboard boxes, but it took us about a week until we found these wax coated boxes that are thrown away because they can't be recycled....perfect for the impending monsoon season.
trust me when i say instructions are necessary when you have a tent from the UK. a smart design, indeed. but not obvious unless you've done it before. plus, we were smart enough to attempt this at night.




the final view

i love the candelabra
