I haven't worked out a scouting trip yet, but I do have a room
reservation at Super 8 in Oelwein for Saturday night, though Wyndhym
doesn't seem to be able to e-mail a confirmation. I had hoped to stay
Friday night in Spring Grove but the little motel there is filled up
because of a wedding. I just got a phone reservation at Crest Inn in
Caledonia about 10 miles away for Friday night.
I'll mention again, Menards has a light weight canopy 8 feet square for
$29.99. It only weighs 5 pounds so probably will need four concrete
blocks to anchor it in case of a breeze over 3 mph, but its very
inexpensive. I have one but havn't opened the box. I think it would be
excessively complex for use while roving.
