<DIV></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> Simonn and I were on site
at the BorderKeep this afternoon on our way home from Rosenfeld, a wonderful
event at Three Kings. Caitrin with Kristen, also Aaron and Kemela
were there. We put out a bit of ant killer, raked, and
watered. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> Many of the Jones Country
site picnic tables have been rendered useless and do not appear to be getting
reconstructed. It would be considerably helpful and convenient for
attendees to bring their own folding tables and camp chairs if
possible.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Several larger FEMA trucks and
work crews are still housed at Jones Country, in the middle of where merchant's
row would go for Melees. FEMA is expected to be there a
while. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> The front RR building has a new
roof and new metal doors; however, the plumbing is not all repaired yet, at
least on the Ladies' side.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> The arbor, basically, is not
standing. Piles of modern machinery are on the shoulder of the central
road next to where the arbor ' was.' </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Every one of Mike's site trailers and
additional ones brought in are currently occupied.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> If the camping populace will
please remain flexible about some standard or favorite locations at
site, the event can be built in a way by which we can disguise the
unexpected modern heavy equipment from our view. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT size=+0>Many of the elec boxes
immediately to your left at gate, before the front RR, *Do* have
juice.</FONT> </FONT></FONT></DIV>If we cluster that which is meaningful
to us </FONT></FONT></FONT><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT>*closer* to the
front gate, before the first RR building </FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT>...then hike though truck-dom (which
takes up space between the two RR's)... </FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT>we can regain the period ambience past
the second RR building on the way down to the BorderKeep.
</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> There may yet be other FEMA
changes on site before Nov 17. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Their Excellencies
and Steward will be making the final event decisions for
placement. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With transitional agreement, 'placement'
at site will be only a minor bump in the road. Oh bumpy road, we fear thee
not. Onward!</FONT></DIV>
