Thank you all for being so informative and helpful. I started with a GT ultralight and fell in love. then bought a BIAS Camper XL and will now never go back to ground camping! even slept better than in my bed. I messed up my first DIY bugnet so I bought a military bar net and used it last night till I make the new bugnet tomorrow. Used an 11.4x9.4 camp tarp from harbor freight and we got LOTS of rain. It was an awesome storm. the lightning was shining through the bugnet and I slept wonderfully. I didn't use anything for insulation except for my 50* sleeping bag but it didn't hit below 60* so I was fine. I brought my blue walmart pad just in case though.
Definitely ready to invest more into quality accessories and not feel bad about it!
And remember to bring a **** fork! Had to eat rice off my knife!
