Wall Tent Camping - Luxury items?

[billcaldwell]

Here is a link to the Riley Stove Company. We have 3 of the Wrangler Stoves. We got the 5 gallon water tanks originally, but after a few years we quit using them. You have to remember to fill them, and soon the mineral build up clogs things up. Now we just keep a big kettle of water on the stove. We can just move the kettle if the water isn't needed.

Solar lights on path to latrine is a very nice touch late at night and in a hurry.......

Reflective tape for guy wires

Can buy "550" cord with reflective elements woven into it off amazon. I use it for exactly this, guy lines on tents & awnings.

If your tent is the type to have a support post at each end directly next to the door flap, then reflective tape on those posts will keep someone from gonging themselves in the middle of the night. Weren't too worried, drunks bounce. Yea, he laid there for a quite a while too.......

Loo bucket, get "WAG bags" for that. Can buy the "Poo Powder" separately if desired.

Huntsman! Dropped a few in latrine so solar lights a nice prevention!!

I like the idea of straw on the floor under the carpeting. Warmer softer floor. I see a straw bale coming this year!

I had an outside RV rug that I used for under awning that is now floor in tent. Holds up to weather and the weave is not so tight that small sand dirt particles will sift through. Adds nice soft floor for tent slippers!

The visual of muddyboots bending over the latrine hole and losing his headlight (a 'few' times) is funnier than imagining him as a 'Bell and Howell Disc Light' (as seen on TV)salesman....

I even retrieved one and decided after 3 days in soapy water it wasn't worth the effort...Now I use hat brim lights and keep my headlights where they belong....

"...after 3 days in soapy water"...!?! Holy cow!!! Now THATS funny. Best thread since show me your man cave.

When a little shower won't do...

These are awesome ideas! Keep them coming... The fan, propane heater, rug, hangers, coal, shower, urinal, lights, towel, bed pads, etc are great ideas...

forget the floor, broom, dustbuster, mops and such. Nobody in their right mind wants to spend camp time playing housekeeper. A little carpet scrap by the cot, to dress on, is the way to go. Even a muddy dirt floor dries out quick with a stove going, and ya don't have to worry about tracking in dirt/removing muddy boots... And nobody mentioned pee bottles, for saving a cold, nighttime run out to relieve yourself.....
