    I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read that. Too funny.

    Funny story. Imagining the family trying to explain.

    Love how the diamond tarp set up looks.

    We have Noah9s ( diamond set up ) when vanCamping. It is fun watching adults and kids trying to figure out the flying tents setup in the trees.
