[MR] trying to find a square/rectangular canvass tent -- CORRECTION

[Dexter Guptill]

Fall Creek's a bit less expensive than Blockade Runners.  Since
Belphoebe vouches for 'em, I'd probably go for one if I hadn't just
bought one this past fall.

I just want a tent that is big enough to have a queen sized ari mattress, an upright protable little wardrobe and where I can change standing up (I am 6'3).. all while staying dry and retain some sort of heat in the near and sub zero temps.  AND keep within about a $500 budget (used is fine)
