Luxie's early xmas... Latest addition

Post by grobbepj »

In preparation for a botswana trip it was decided that some shade will be needed. So I had this made up to try and maximise shade and get a closed off space for getting dressed outside the rtt :-)

The normal ostrich wing was too expensive now I need more practise to get this up and down easier. Took me 15 min on first try...

I was short one anchor pole and some ropes so it is not pulled nice and straight in the pics...

Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
