I haven't checked yet- I'm going to do that this
afternoon. As I've mentioned before, I'd like to get
it out of the A&S tents and into a more relaxed
atmosphere, where we have back-up supplies. I was not
happy with some of the discourtesy I observed last
year, and my thought was that making it a more relaxed
atmosphere might remind folks that we're all friends
together.

Mud? We have very little mud in our camp. Usually
things ar muddy for about 10 minutes after a rain
storm, and after that, the willow trees suck all the
water up. As far as places to sit, we should have
plenty- keep in mind that we've been building this
camp slowly, and usually when you've been there, we
were just getting set up.

Well, we're a lot easier to find when the signs are up
;-) Someone is supposed to be making large signs, but
it's been lower on our priorities than other things.
We also will be larger than usual- last year, we could
have handled the number of people at the Potluck with
some crowding- this year, we'll have plenty of room-
and a nice view of the Lake, to boot.

Yeah, I'll likely be helping Johan in his shop that
night, too. And, Wednesday's usually the day of the
Woods battle, which usually keeps me busy until about
6PM or so.

Olwen- would you be willing to put up a map on your
website so we can show you guys where we are?
