[backwoods_boy]

Buy a therma-rest or a blow up twin air mattress or a blow up doll.

Dont forget the goldbond.  Man you sure have borrowed a lot of stuff this year.  A bail of stray is about as warm and comfortable as you can get when sleeping on the ground.  But the blowup doll idea is probably a better investment................

[backwoods_boy]

ok ok ok the beating can stop now.

just went to fred meyer, target, sears and sports authority and finally found a cot.
99$
put it on the credit card.....

[Skyvalhunter]

Ohhh too bad I was going to let you borrow mine!!

[backwoods_boy]

awe thats ok i needed one for my very own anyways. And you get what you pay for and from some reviews i read online this one seems to hold up and be very good quality and well built.
Thanks though

If I've got room, I'm not using the bivy in a 5oz. hammock, sleeping on a mat, don't have the camp trailer, then I use a single size air mattress ($19.99) with a battery powerd/rechargable air pump ($12.99) from WallyWorld.

The cot is nice so you can stow stuff under it. Let us know how it works for you. Some of them are very noisy to sleep on. Many just aren't durable enough.

I purchased a couple from cabelas. They are for car camping, not the lightest but you can put them together in 30 seconds and have their own case.
