Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for September 03, 2023

Is there a pool table in the basement?

Ah, one of those TARDIS tents, I see.

is there airconditioning?

“Be careful you don’t bump into the grand piano or fall in the pool like you might im Snoopy’s house.”

“My God, it’s full of stars!!”

Arlo, has definitely Impressed Janis. . . . Size does matter

Looks like Janis caught sight of the Picasso.

Glamping requires a queen bed at least.

Great strip today!

Aww, I wanna see what’s inside too!

He got it from the wizarding world

Watch out for the VanGogh.

Janis, enter at your own risk!

Its got three floors and a media room!

Looks like he got himself a Wizard’s tent ala Harry Potter.

Watch out for the stairs inside. And Arlo, if you’re inspired by Snoopy, shouldn’t you sleep outside on top of the tent?

It’s like the TARDIS…

Snoopy…what an inspiration!

A LIKE for the Peanuts reference, but “glamping” is the ridiculous practice of claiming you’re camping while experiencing practically all the comforts and conveniences (and separation from nature) of home.

I dare you to sleep on top like Snoopy does…

I call “clamping” nit-witting. The purpose of camping is to get out and experience nature, not to take everything out into the woods with you.

“Is….is.. that a Van Gogh??”

Only in Comics can you blatantly defy the laws of physics…..

Just be quiet tonight, you two. You don’t want to arouse the neighbors.

Okay, poll:

Are there any readers who had to come here to understand the joke involved?

went camping with another couple that didn’t have a clue. Inside of the tent was a romantic set up of a pretty hanging lantern and lots of white pillows and comfy quilt. True, the weather report didn’t expect rain, but rain it did! They ended up sleeping cramped in their car.

I have no idea why Janis has an expression of shock and awe when she peers into the tent. If any of my fellow commenters know, please illuminate me.

Pop UP tent?

So what does she see inside that is so shocking? I don’t recall anything glamorous about Snoopy’s doghouse.

I had a puptent as a kid, I dug a hole the dimensions of the tent, and 2 feet deep, and set the tent up over it. I could almost stand up inside it!

Snoopy’s doghouse was the Tardis before the tardis.

Really would like to get the grand tour

Wait until he tries to sleep on top of it

It’s a shame he lost the Van Gogh in the fire…

Snoopy’s dog house is like the tent Hermine carried in her purse.

Designed by Dr.Who? Bigger on the inside?

12 years ago we had bed bugs in the house. (Best guess is that I picked them up at a specific client and brought them home.) Expensive and exhausting to get rid of. We decided we could never stay in a hotel again. (Oddly the night of the day they treated the house we had to stay in a hotel – they checked the room with bed bug smelling dog before we used it.)

Husband likes to travel along the east US coast to same places every year. So we bought an RV. No, not like in the movies, it is what is called a Class B – a Chevy van converted to an RV. living space inside (including the front seats which turn around at night to sit in for the evening) is something less than 20ft by 6ft. It is very “cozy”. That tent might well have more space in it than our RV.

Now I want to see the inside.
