Default Winter Blues

I purchased a new tent today. I have been waiting patiently for it to fall in price. Finally was marked down less than half off.

Now comes the waiting patienltly for the weather to changed. Considering I live in Buffalo NY, I best put it in the basement and wait 5 months.

I feel your pain. I was looking at tents the other day knowing that I wouldn't be able to use it until may. What tent did you go with?

Coleman Bayside. 8 Person Tent. I liked the fact that it had a hinged door. It seemed to be a good tent for the wife, myself, and the two dogs on our weekend fishing trips. Plus, it was 150 in the fall when I saw it, stopped at Target the other day and it was marked down to 70.
