We tent camped for years. However, 3 years ago at the GFM NPW, we were tent camping in a 3 day rainstorm, getting thoroughly soaked and cold. The second day we were there, another couple pulled in with a Coleman pop up. The war department took one look, said "we've got to have one of these". Before she could change her mind, we went shopping and had one 3 weeks later. At our age it's great having hot and cold running water, heat and air conditioning, king size beds, dining area, fridge, and all the other comforts of home. Bill
