LITTLE BOY
The guerrants oldest son, Terry, goes to work on the
other half of the Camp Otell, the high and dry sleeper.
The ear*top tent sleeps four, out of reach of bugs, snakes,
and other crawlers. It also keeps the sleepers off the
wet ground, which is a handicap for conventional tents.
The sleeper sells for around 150 dollars, the diner retails
for about 45 dollars. Errant formed the Camp t*teil
corporation with the purpose of improving and simplifing
camping gear.
Although the sleeper and diner takes less than 15 minutes
to set up, one of the Gferrant ls' twins can t wait, andcrawls inside for a closer look.
