Of course, you can’t enjoy lunch in the mountains, on the deck of your friend’s house, without the umbrella properly positioned. Furthermore, when your friend remembers that the umbrella needs bolstering – all MacGyver skills are called into play.
And just how many MacGyvers does it take to prepare the luncheon site? Three. One to climb the step stool and apply the chip clip, one to hold the person on the step stool so she doesn’t topple over the deck, and one to pass the bungee cord and begin a novena for the safety of the other two.
This was not our finest hour. However, it did work. Lunch was observed in proper fashion.
