Until I got to the rain-fly...
Murphy's Law of tent assembly: the correct orientation for the rain-fly, is always the LAST orientation you try!
Coupled with a fair amount of wind and with only a small LED penlight for guidance, it took me probably another 30 minutes to chase around and get that damn thing on... I crumpled in exhaustion into my sleeping bag roughly 1:30-2AM, the wind that so aggravated me before at least now providing a cool refreshment from the sticky heat.
All that trouble last night, and this morning it looks like the clouds in the sky didn't even have the decency to rain... but I have to say, looking at my handiwork this morning I didn't do too bad for fumbling around half-asleep in the dark.
Now... I get to take it all apart again! ;-)
