Well after an exhausting practice run… I have discovered that I can indeed fit an upright bass, a guitar, a mandolin, a fiddle, my brother, and enough camping gear and beer for us both to be comfortable for ten days into a Toyota Camry :eek :thumbsup… It aint pretty, but it will work!! :lol Now I just have to break it to my brother that the bass is riding shotgun :eek :lol
God only knows that there are people in Wander-In’ who know more about ABGATing than me (recall I just arrive to a tent that has already been “set up” [or is it me who gets set up]) but Wander-In’ may need some help from people this year because we won’t have our two advance guard knights-in-shining-armor, Carolyn and Ron, to grab space and set up.
Wander’in will be well taken care of by all of us, but especially, Tom and Courtney and Jen and Connie and AtotheJ and whoever else I see Monday when I get there. We’ll do our very best because … we’re festivarians and that’s what festivarians do. Plus, if it keeps you where we can keep an eye on you EJ :evil :flower
Most of my stuff is still packed from last year (cleaned of course).
I only have an hour and a half trip.
I’m going to go through my stuff in the next couple days to figure out what I packed last year that I don’t need (didn’t use), then load the trailer and head out Monday morning.
Don’t forget your Shower dress/robe/caftan/muumuu!! For the easiest shower experience, while still in your tent you divest yourself of all your dirty clothing, (it goes straight into your laundry bag) & you don ONLY your shower dress and flipflops. You then go take your shower, making it very fast and easy, (as the next person in line is not waiting for you to dress) and you then return to your tent and dress there. This also helps you avoid the dreaded Skivvy Foul, wherein you drop your clean undergarments on the path en route to the showers, or the even worse FOUL Skivvy Foul , wherein you drop your DIRTY undergarments in the path whilst returning from the showers. Note: Only those members of Camp Flamingo can commit a Fowl Foul Skivvy Foul.
