			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is a blog entry that we REALLY appreciate from Splash T@B &#8211;</p>
<p>&#8220;I’m afraid today’s Postcard will be of interest to just a small percentage of you, but the rest of you are welcome to hang around!  The ones that might find this interesting are those of you with T@B clamshells or those of you who are always in search of the perfect awning, canopy, tent or screen room.</p>
<p>Here’s where I confess that I fall into that category since I own an original gray T@B awning, an easy-up tent purchased at WalMart, a Paha Que screen room, and the new Therma-Rest Archwing awning.  I know, I know&#8230;it’s an addiction.</p>
<p>This past weekend at the NC Tear Jerkers rally, I met a fellow from nearby Charlotte (Leo Dunn) who began his own tear drop construction company just this past January&#8230; Appalachian Tear Drops.  When he stopped by to see SplashT@B, we got to talking about awnings and he told me about his friend from Boone that makes canopies that fit his tear drops perfectly.  When he started describing them, I immediately thought about our CS owners!&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1424" style="border: 1px dotted gray;" title="TS8 on a sunny morning" src="http://havelosconsulting.com/tsuga/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/TS8Verticalx1024-200x300.jpg" alt="TS8 on a sunny morning" width="200" height="300" /></p>
<p>Contact us for details on ordering.  A larger model of the TS 6.5 is available now.  More protection from the elements.  Plan on getting yourself ready for the beach trip, sporting events, picnics and tailgating at your football games.</p>
<p>The asymmetrical design of the canopy allows for multiple configurations and provides upmost stability in a variety of conditions  and environments, whether it is cabana style on the beach, set up on the  roof rack of your vehicle for tailgating, or anywhere and everywhere in  between where you need a break from the Tsun.</p>
<p>With two pieces out of the bag, a canopy skin and pole system leaves  little to be lost in the shuffle to the beach. All Tsuga Canopies come  with DAC aluminum poles on an integrated, shock corded hub that makes  setup and teardown a breeze. A 210 denier nylon skin brings the poles to  life; with a quick cinch to the tension straps you’ll have all day sun  protection.  Velcro straps and brass rings make anchoring your canopy  simple.  Made with quality materials and crafted with pride by hand in  North Carolina, Tsuga canopies come with a 2 year warranty and a variety of accessories to allow endless applications tailored to suit  individual needs.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tsuga has been a great company to work with and offer quality,  innovative products made locally in North Carolina.   I work for a  company that builds challenge courses and zip line tours both regionally  and internationally and love the Tsuga TUBS for various applications.  Their Linemen TUBS have been perfect for our challenge course and zip  line tour building crew to haul tools and hardware up trees and poles.   The Rescue TUB is a new addition to our product line for courses and  offers clients a more user friendly and versatile way to pack and travel  with rescue gear through their course.  Personally, I don&#8217;t leave the  house with out my Catch-All TUB packed full of outdoor gear for after  work fun.  Tsuga TUBS are the perfect way to keep your equipment and  gear organized and portable.  I am getting ready to purchase a Tsuga  Canopy too.  Tsuga gear is definitely worth checking out!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;I just had my first trial this  past weekend using the Tsuga, and I LOVE IT!  It was very easy to put  up,  and after fiddling with the arrangements, was quite cozy and cool!  It  was  a pre-Santa Ana weekend (the Santa Ana winds blow dry, dessert heat HARD  from  the east), so it was quite warm and breezy.  It was cool under the  Tsuga,  and the Blades made a huge difference.  We had some gusts up to 25 mph,  and  the Tsuga held up great.  I love how you can manipulate the blades to  fit  how the sun moves so you can keep as much shade on your stuff (and dog)  as  possible.  I also ADORE the clips!!!  They held on so well, and still  removed easily&#8230; THAT is a fabulous design!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I loved that I could get everything to  my car in one cart trip.  Tear down was fast.  Thank you once again for making a superb product!  I  love it, and know I&#8217;ll get many years of wonderful use out of it.&#8221;</p>
