It was a lot of work to build, but camp setup is now much easier. This replaced a wooden structure that we assembled every year, requiring 6-8 people and a couple hours. (And we're all getting older and some camp members are feeling that.) That structure replaced a fly and a pavilion that were susceptible to winds and rains that disrupted dinner too many times.
The bigger driver here was that we were storing way too much weight in my trailer (the house you see in the background in some of these pictures), and that was causing problems. That structure we assembled every year needed to be stored somewhere else, and somewhere along the line we decided that if we were going to need a trailer anyway, we might as well eliminate some steps.
This year we only had 20 adults in camp; usually it's more like 25. So this turned out to be a good year to find out where we're going to bump into limits. All our meals went fine this year, and we need to optimize our dishracks. I'll take that. :-)
