And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Tried to sleep in one of these in Louisiana in July in the Atchafalaya Swamp (doing BSA "Swamp Base" with my son). Claustrophobic as hell and ABSOLUTELY no air movement. Said to hell with it after 5 minutes and spent the rest of the night on the floor of a gazebo.
Since I spent 12 months and 29 days "camping" on the back of my tank in Vietnam, I have absolutely no desire to go camping since 1969.
ReplyDeleteI don't camp where I live as it's mosquito heaven 9 months of the year and I got dengue in April. Doors and windows closed 365.

ReplyDeleteSlept with my arm and shoulder and partial back up against that netting in Korea eons ago. Terrible mistake. I was a pint short by morning.
ReplyDeleteLooks nifty.
