Aluminum teepee vs Ironteepee

This is taking a lot of adjustment.  The motorhome is in the shop for engine repairs so we are “tent” camping for a week, maybe two.  The high incidence of biting ants, another fine Texas attribute, has led us to actually sleep in the boat to stay up off the ground.  The cover supported by lathe stays creates a Conestoga wagon-like space.  We have our backpacking air mattresses and with lows at night in the 70s we definitely don’t need sleeping bags.  We are back to a cooler and ice, no frig.  Cooking on charcoal and the Coleman backpacker stove.  Middle of the night potty stops are down the road…they do have running water and showers.  When it rains, we hide out in the car, actually the rental SUV.  Remember, the Focus is in the shop.  This will certainly be a couple weeks to remember.
