Thanks, JasonG! I actually live in Largo, but work in Tampa and I'm in Tampa a lot. Haven't really been in Brandon, but through it. Man! I was driving through Brandon on my way home from picking up my two girls from Port St Lucie where I adopted them! If only I knew then. I might make it there anyway. I get pretty determined sometimes. Thanks for the info!

Okay folks,
I just came out of the tent. It did take a few more than 5 minutes to set up, however, once you have the initial set up done, you can unlink the top (t-pee) and collapse it and it makes it a really quick set up for the next tent time.

When I first started setting it up, I did see that the bottom, only where the poles are attached, are possible escape areas. I think vecro would be the way to go.

Tonight I just brought a few beach towels in with me and tucked them around the areas, and actually, they didn't even go near them. They were all climbing and flipping back and forth from my head to the rope I had placed in there.

I love it.

Great Tent!

yayy! Can't wait to get mine - it was shipped yesterday so will be here next week. Can someone post an acutal picture of yours set up so we can see what it looks like in real?

Cycy, That's what I was thinking of doing too - tucking the towels in, but I agree, Gizzy didn't even go near them and he's been in it a bunch of times. I'm glad to hear the towel thnig worked tho, just in case, and we've been collapsing it too so there's really no set-up after that initial time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yelclap.gif" alt="" />

Looking forward to more fun tonight!

Cy,
Gizzy hasn't accepted the fact that the mesh doesn't go quite all the way to the top, so his best idea is to actually skim the very top of the tent as he jumps back and forth, he just won't give up the dream lol....but yeah, he goes INSANE, he gets this crazy little look in his eye lol.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />

Jess I'm glad somebody sees the humor when the suggie montsers get to the top! Mine get all the way to the top and they look at me as if to say, why can't I go any further, why is this part so slippery? Help! Then they jump on my head and start back towards the Tee Pee center at the top again! It's halarious!

**My apologies, MelindaKay I will post a pic tonight for you to see....or try to.

Ebay has some if you search David Kirk's screen house. I FOUND ONE! Actually I found three! Two are left and they were actually at the Target closest to my house! I don't know how I missed them before! The one on Ebay starts at $10 and you can buy it now for $17, but it's on clearance at Target for $7.48!!!! The product number is 091 12 0232. There's also a number at the top right of the sticker that is 30. I don't know if that may be the department or something. Mine was still listed for $20.98, but rang up for $7.48. There's two left at largo mall if anyone is in the Tampa area and wants one. The corners do need to be secured more, but other than that, my suggies loved it!

yeah went into the tent, peo found the holes at the bottom, but only because he caught me trying to tape it up, funny thing is, he hasn't caught on that he can climb up the sides yet...still kinda cautious...

Okay, Just to show you all at the bottom of the tent for those of you who were wondering, this is how I have been setting mine up (until this week-end when I can place the extra velcro on each side of the poles at the bottom, I have no time through the week). Should take twleve small pieces, (six poles). The velcro that I had, was too wide and wouldn't work. But the attachment shows a huge beach towel placed around the edge at the bottom that seems to be working for a temporary solution, and honestly, I've had all six of my gliders in every night this week and they haven't even become snoopy about it,....yet! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dance.gif" alt="" />

Hi. I got this tent and my little girl crawled right out of it by the corners where there is no velcro. Did I do it wrong? Anybody else have this problem? Please let me know. Thanks

PS. Shylo went up and over the sheet I put around it like you did the towel. Maybe I should have named her Houdini?

Here's Itchy at the tip top, looks like he's on a pirate ship checkin out the seas ahead, Ahoy Mate!

The top piece can be unassembled with great ease, and tent folded right up.

As for the bottom, I make sure that the towel is tucked in good around each pole up on the side a little so there is no opening the eye can see....like I said they really don't seem to be bothered by it.

I might take the time today and try the velcro strips.

And I can't find a tent that's close to it.

I picked up the velcro (with industrial strength adhesive) and it worked like a charm, no escape holes!
I just cut the peices into strips and viola!

Just found this link for a single tent on e-bay for those who are still looking:

Just got mine off line, I am so excited!!! I hope this helps my little one, "pebbles" bond with me. I went to Target (2 different locations) but no one had them so I had to spend a little more money but I know it will be worth it.

Thought I would share this with you all. I went to target to get the buggy tent but they didn't have it. I got this princess one that they had and attached it to a tarp with velcro which made it escape proof. I plan on sewing it to the tarp eventually. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />
