Golden Ticket

I picked it up from Sports Basement on Bryant @ 16th. Woot! Okay, time for phase II. Collecting stuff. Next step, get my shade structure/tent situation worked out. I am debating 3 different shade structures.I've considered an RV, too. Or a 10' bobtail. 195- for the week for a 10' bobtail. The RV would be nearly that per day, I think. Anyway, its not a real prospect for now. I am still venturing forth alone with no other economy to consider. I am open to whatever Life provides, in that regard. I'll do my part by working hard all summer, saving, collecting and preparing. The rest of it will work itself out.
Back to the tent itself...


My main concern at this point with any shade structure is the durability of it in the 75mph winds. Rebar is key, regardless. The dome is the best bet for a solid structure, but its got the most time investment. I'd prefer that the Teepee/tension tent worked out, but I have no way of knowing. I mean, I have to get there alone, set up camp, alone and still have enough space for all my other supplies. Water, and lots of it...what the fuck is it, 2.5 gallons/day/person? that's 9x2.5=22.5 gallons of water, or 9 of those big water jugs at Safeway. I should buy all that shit now and store it. I want to start to get a sense now of exactly how much space my car has.
