    Nice to see you still using your father's tent Wayne.

    I regret lending my Woods tent like that to someone who put it away wet in the 70's. He was dumb, I was dumber for lending it to him.

    That sucks big time the person you lent it to he or she should had nowien that you have to dry out the tent when you get home or it will rot ,,sad thing..

    Had one in orange it was a Pioneer brand . Sadly I put it away damp once and it was covered in black mould the next time I pulled it out . Lesson learned !

    They haven’t made anything like they used to in my entire lifetime. Companies used to have pride in what they make now they don’t have one iota of pride in anything they produce, money hungry sub human degenerates.

    I probably spend a third of my income annually only supporting local quality business, from furniture to food, you won’t catch any disposable made in China shit in my house unless there is absolutely no alternative IE game console. We buy our furniture from Mennonite and hudderites, as well as any additional food we need.

    That looks similar to the one my buddy has. His only complaint is the windows only tie shut and it’s pretty drafty. That’s an easy fix for a hunting tent though. He could easily see them shut
