Do you remember the Snoop Sisters, Mom?  I bet you'd remember THIS episode! I've been searching for a good quality clip of this...

Sukkot Greetings!

A harvest celebration.  We build a temporary booth that is open to the sky (covered with boughs and foliage).  We eat at least one meal in the booth a day, many will eat and sleep in the booth (Jewish form of camping?)

Mine was built today in a light sprinkle with wood from last year and tarps (car repair ate into my lumber budget).  Thank HaShem for my sister!  I was too short to lift the frame onto the railings!

Beginning the build - remove the tubs and gardening dirt, gather lumber

Drilled pilot holes for the LONG nails - attach long boards to posts





Frame is coming together

The frame sits on the deck railing and is pretty darn solid.


Next comes tying the tarps to form walls and weave line across the top, forming a "cat's cradle" to hold the boughs

and cut some brush for the top

Tada!

Even Holly the cat approves
