The MASH Tent
(conclusion)
I realize that incidents have happened in gatherings such as the Philadelphia Folk Festival. People are paranoid and security needs to be vigilant. But, because of the experience summarized with the four photos above this one, and other details that I didn't include -- rules that caused the four of us to be separated through most of the process -- it took me about two and one-half hours to drop off three adults and their camping gear . . .once I had arrived. The entire time, we were trying to figure out how to do otherwise-simple things, given the list of rules.
Is it necessary to get in our own way, when we make security tight enough to feel safe?
