I found this on a a Pop-Up camper site. It very accurately describes my hubby and me yesterday while setting up in the campground.
For Linda and I, it has gotten to be more of a "Where do you want it?" She tells me approximately where and I attempt to get it where she pretended she wanted it then I move it over then I move it forward then I move it back just a bit but it is too close to the trees and the glide out won't fit so I move it back but now the bunk end won't open so I move over a little but I might be too close to the fire pit so I move it back a hair but that is way too far so I try to run over her and she moves closer to the fire pit so I move over to the fire pit and try to run her down there but she scoots over by the trees but I'VE already been there so get a go start but still miss her cause she's really moving now. I get out of the truck and start running after her but she can run faster in fear than I can in anger so she's already in the ladies' bathroom by the time I catch up.
She waits in there and I go park the camper. Alone.
I'm glad she runs fast. I'd hate to catch her some day....
But, it did go well after we set up camp. Okay, so the awning blew off the roof of the camper, the sink stopper would not work, I forgot to get our clothes out of the compartment before we put the tables down and made the grandkids bed and put them to sleep, could not make toast for breakfast because I had forgotten to buy a camp toaster and a brand new lantern with new batteries would not work.
But, It was fun. The grandkids went swimming, fishing and for long hikes. They made hotdogs and smores over the campfire. They got dirty as little pigs and loved it.

Nice! And everyone should have slept GREAT, after all that fresh air and exercise.
Cheers, CB, enjoy it.
