Camping Equipment For Sale

After my last camping trip at Lake Harding Slabfest, I have come to realize that my idea of camping is at the Holiday Inn. So, in lieu of that, I have decided to sell all of my camping equipment. I have a Coleman tent that is in great shape that will sleep 4-6 people easily and can be put up and taken down easily and quickly with just 1 person(Just ask Smitty:D). I also have pots, pans, dishes, cups, Propane Coleman Stove, Propane Lanterns, a brand new Coleman Queen size blow up mattress with an air pump that inflates and deflates the mattress, and probably some more things that I have forgotten about. As much as I have enjoyed Slabfests, I believe that the hotel room is going to be my way of overnight stays from now on. I guess my camper has spoiled me....Just PM me if you anyone is interested in anything.

Is it that you are getting wise or is it that you finally found out you need to pamper Ann? My mother always said that her idea of roughing it was a chipped plate at the Hyatt Regency. Here I was considering the camping route to save money, but I agree. Sleeping in a tent is not as comfortable as a motel room.

I am going to put my 10 acres up for sale and when and if it sells, I will be looking for an RV at Rusty's. One of the best lakes I have found.

Let me know where you find them this weekend. I will be arriving Monday evening or Tuesday.

Actually the air mattress sleeps as well as my bed, but it's just easier to walk into the hotel room and "Plop" down!!!:D

Hey Tim, PM sent your way. Give me a call PLEASE.

Only trouble about staying at a hotel is you miss most of the fun at the slabfests. The wife and I stayed in town at the Feb 08 Blackshear Slabfest, and I went home thinking I had missed out on alot of fun staying at a hotel. This year we tent camped at West Point and it made the event much more enjoyable for us. Tent camping is alot of work though, and we have since bought a slide in pick up camper. I didn't want another vehicle to tag and insure, so a motorhome was out. Seeing how we tow our boat everywhere, a camping trailer wouldn't work. The slide in doesn't have a bathroom or shower, but does have a portapotty for the wife. It does have a queen size bed, dinette, sink, 2 burner stove, fridge, microwave and a coffee pot. We can use it still on the truck for short stays, or we can unload it at the campground and use it off the ground. We did a 3 day trip here in PA a few weeks ago, and the morning we were leaving it was pouring rain. How nice it was to have some coffee and cereal sitting in there nice and dry, then hopping out of the back, jumping up front and driving off. In a tent, that would have been one miserable morning!

The only problem my GF and I have with campers of any type is that the only way to get to where we like to camp is by boat...........

Do they make a slide in for a bayboat? LOL............

We are really pretty funny..............I have a small 2 person Eureka tent that was a free gift when I bought my Eureka Timberline 4 Outfitter tent.........

It will barely hold a queen size bed..........fits nicely on the bow of the boat for all night nightstalking or staying on the lake when there are no campsites.......

I have two thermarest dreamtime mattresses we stuff in there that I swear sleep better than my bed at home LOL...............

We primitive camp everywhere we go...........

Just need you one of these.. 3-5 minute setup a few more with the poles if its a longer stay or hotter outside. Has a real mattress in it and me and my wife can sprawl out in it. Its about the size of a full size mattress.

To put it up its about a 5-10 minute put up depending on mood. Very easy. I love it. My truck is my camper.

Papasage what model tent is that? I have been looking into some tent camping at the coast. I have read where people set up those small ac units. Did you have to cut that opening custom or did the tent come with an opening already?

Until I can afford a camper, the tent is gonna be my coastal flats trip Motel:D

Its made by Camping Lab... index It s pricey but I do alot of offroading and camping and fishing so my truck is my mobile house. Last trip I staye at 5500' on a mountain bald in the Smokies. In 20* it kept me nice and warm with some goo bags and everything buttoned down. Anyway heres a good closed shot...do not ask about the stuck..there was grass there and I was turning around...it was when all the rain and flooding was goin on..
