Last autumn, a nasty windstorm demolished our gazebo. We finally bought a replacement, and began putting it together this past Monday. Once we got to the roof portion, we realized we were missing some fundamental pieces. Long story short, we ordered another gazebo with the intent of returning it just to get the missing parts. (Getting the parts from the manufacturer would've taken 2 - 3 weeks... hell no.) The replacement gazebo arrived late today, and we finished the assembly right at dusk. (I'm lying on the ground underneath the chandelier hanging from the gazebo in this photograph).
