[Artemisia] Tent Opinions

[Sue Clemenger]

Actually, Your Excellency, I have no idea of your Getelds are leaky! I have
known other people to go the cheap/inexpensive/dropcloth way, and end up
regretting it, though.  Really coarse canvas can leak badly, mold, mildew,
etc.
Larger tents would be ideal for those with more stuff, or those doing
multi-week events, of course.  But if you're like me, and only get the
occasional camping weekend....;o)

going on long trips on planes, small tents are easier to haul or you can
just buy one when you get to say . . . Pennsic, which, along with a tube of
seam seal, will suit you fine.
