Also, if I get a tarp, how much bigger than my tent should it be? The tent is 7’ by 9’.


You actually want the tarp smaller than the tent. If it's larger, it will collect water and hold it under the tent.

Also, buy a tent with a full rain fly. It will eventually storm on you in Louisiana.

That makes sense. I haven’t been camping in Louisiana yet. So far, I have only camped in Georgia, and the weather was favorable. I didn’t even use the rain fly because I liked being able to see around the tent. I’m sure it is only a matter of time before I encounter rain while camping, though.
