TT Sublite awning

Happy Birthday!!

So…why does the tent need an awning?

I don't know……….I think the awnings on the DR are pretty cool.

There is an old joke about males and mammary glands, apparently the reason we have them is "just in case"

Thanks BTW, I would be happier if I was getting younger, but that option will not be available for a while.

Happy Birthday Franco

> BTW, I would be happier if I was getting younger, but that option will not be available for a while.

Franco, it is just a state of mind. I will hit 60 next year, and it is no big deal. I can still do all the things I want to do.

A little story. A few years ago I was sitting with my son and the kids on his high school track team. We were discussing music, life, and generally BSing. One of the kids told my son, "Joe, your dad is the coolest parent I have ever met." In a serious voice, Joe replied, "You guys need to understand something. In our family, my dad is the kid and my sister and I are the adults." One of the best compliments I ever received.

Nick
Yes, that is it. I have met many "young" octogenarians and some not so young 30 years old.
Have fun !

I have never seen such a monstrosity on a perfectly good TT.

Happy b-day Franco and thanks (again) for the pics.

If a Sublite user is set on having an awning I would think a small tarp such as the MLD "Dog Tarp" or an MSR "E-Wing" would work well. These small tarps provide a fair amount of coverage with a minimal weight penelty.

Fifty did seem pretty ancient at one time, didn't it?

Happy birthday, Franco. Love the red shoes.

The red shoes are for his Walkabouts in the bush. And if he ever gets lost, he can just close his eyes, tap his heels together three times, and repeat "There's no place like home" over and over.

Of course, he might wind up in Kansas that way……….

Happy Hatch Day, Franco. Just don't let Henry see what you did with his tent or he'll never let you have another.
