i'm looking at the flames on the door and the potential flames on the tent and the flames on the door. and the tent, and the door... and the can of fuel. i'm not a safety nut but seems close to a fire ring. is that customary?

[quote="sodbuster"]this is a test really just to check to see if i can put pics with some of my posts. this shot was from the first camping trip i took with my westy. saddly it was the second attempt. the old engine blew up on the first attempt. but after the work was done she is dependable as can be. Cool

Hey Sodbuster, looking at the picture, I see a TV antenna sticking out of the tent. What else do you have in there?
