Will do. We'll get something posted Thursday to help folks find our camp. And, yeah, bring your longjohns.

Awesome. If you can post your location once you get out there we'll try to hook up.

That's perfect, you can reserve us about 100,000 square feet of desert floor!

I hope nothing interferes with your plan. It's going to be a great time!

Awesome! Check the first post on Thursday. Hopefully, we'll have some good way to identify our campsite. We could really use a giant inflatable gorilla.

You can sort of understand why they banned bottles out there looking at a number like that.

Which got me thinking, this year I think I'm bringing a 5-liter keg (or two). Bevmo's got Newcastle, Heineken, Spaten, and Widmer, each for less than $20. hXXp://www.bevmo.com/Shop/ProductDetail.aspx?D=newcastle&Ntx=mode%2bmatchall &Dx=mode%2bmatchall&Ntk=All&Nty=1&Ntt=newcastle&N= 0&ProductID=31383

That's why I'm getting there early, so I can get a spot for the motorhome as close as possible to HammerTown. Also bringing the JK.

If anyone is interested, I can see how much space they will let me reserve when I get there.

As of right now I am planning on going. The only thing that will stop me is the navy. Hoping I don't have to work!

For your sake I hope the Navy decides to just chill that weekend.
