Sleeping Pad(s)

This item has been completely eliminated by the advent of the greatest camp
gear invention in my lifetime:

The Self-Inflating, Queen-sized air bed.

Originally these things were pricey, but our new one cost less than $30.
(Our old one, which cost over $70, was absolutely shredded at Sun N Fun this
year by the incredibly tough saw grass. That stuff penetrated our ground
cloth, our tent, AND our air mattress!)

I used to wake up sore and achy at OSH -- now, I sleep as well in the tent
as I do at home. I highly recommend one!

But more importantly, how does it do...ummm...for...ummm...morning or evening
calisthenics?

Well, Jim, I've not, ah, been able to test the, er, capacity of the
self-inflating air mattress, as I am compelled to camp at OSH with a
pre-teen daughter and a teenage son located mere feet away in the same tent.

We all have to make sacrifices to attend OSH...

So, sneak back to the tent during the day while the kids are checkin' out
all the planes!
