Alright! We're going to CRAWFORD!

[Guaranteed]

We're leaving tomorrow night, and we'll be there Saturday morning.

Who's been there? What do we need to know?

We're bringing a tent. There's still tent space, right? It's also kind of a big one. Maybe others can make use of the space as well (I don't like thinking we're taking up others' space). Do we need to reserve a space or anything like that if we're going to camp it?

And we're going to be bringing supplies. Water, and I thought I'd bring in some veggies in a cooler and some beef jerky for those who eat meat (like me).

A couple of chairs, maybe some kind of entertainment.

We have to park elsewhere, right, and take a bus in? Someone said there is a place to "sign in."

Basically, what are the ropes?

2. Look in the Texas forum for updates.

I hear they are getting low on tent space. You may have to camp elsewhere. Take water and ice. Check in at the Crawford Peace House first.

3. It's a 7-person tent.

It's kind of large. We could consolidate.

Or we could buy a smaller tent. Which would you suggest?

7. You may want to call the Peace House and ask them

for suggestions, that'd be best....

10. Thinking about bringing the cats..

Maybe not such a good idea, though. :P

11. Can't wait for your report

on everything..you'll have the most interesting experiences.

Watch out for the fire ants!

12. Aww geez...

Maybe I should bring the bug repellant, huh?

We were thinking we wouldn't need it.

[Guaranteed]

13. Do they allow campfires there?

Probably only those that are authorized.

But I thought I'd bring some potatoes and aluminum foil. I always thought potatoes were the one thing someone could live on for a year straight, and they keep so damned well...

14. Happy day!

:applause:

You won't regret it, believe me! Take lots of pics and be sure to report back.

One thing I meant to bring but forgot was one of those squeeze bottle things with the fan attached. It's bloody hot down there.

FWIW, when I mentioned West, that's a little Czech town just off I-35 north of Waco. You'll see signs. There's a bakery right off the interstate where you can get the best kolaches, which are czech pastries. Enjoy!
