Yeah,  I'd have to agree (living roughly an hour north of Lady Brighid):
viable campsites are few and far between, while there are lots and lots
of churches and schools we can rent for a day. I'd say when I _do_ camp,
which is probably even less than twice a year since I haven't been to
Pennsic in a while, my group seems to use a mixture of modern tents and
period pavillions.
Of course we don't tend to spend huge amounts of time in camp anyway...
must be those type-A-personalities we in Ostgardr are all rumored to
have ;  ) .
