Ikea People: Camping Out for Opening Day, and a Settee

These folks are queuing up for the opening of the new Ikea in Redhook. They have been promised a free settee if they brave it until the Wednesday opening, two nights away.

The evening began with a storm, bringing the first endurance challenge of torrential rain and strong gusts of wind.

 Things did calm down and people began settling down for the night.
