Alright guys its getting closer!!!

So no new members to report except that an old member LOU WILL BE MAKING IT!!! Glad to see that he will be coming out this year from NYC again...

Still trying to get the meeting time set up at Ralphs so the majority of us with carpasses can all go in at same time... hopefully with all these new 1 mile restrictions we can still stop at the Ralphs.


Also we have 1 3 day pass up for sale if anyone needs it PM me!!

And we have a car camping pass that would like to be traded for a companion camping pass!! PM me and let me know as well BOTH TICKETS ARE FROM PEOPLE IN THE GROUP NOT SOME SCALPER AND ARE NOT ASKING A CRAZY PRICE FOR THE 3 DAY!!!

Jefferson is still open. http://indio.kpsplocal2.com/news/eve...ormation/70309. 50th, ridiculously, is still open between Jefferson and Madison.

My guess would have been the checkpoint is turning onto 50th. But the news report makes me uncertain.

Yo, I'm picking Lou up at 11. We should be able to make it by 1230.

Glad to hear your safe fumfum.

Woot! Good to hear you will be making the trip Lou!
Thanks for asking about the car camping pass trade for companion Aaryn...I actully just made a connection in the "Tickets" section with someone who has a companion pass looking to trade for car camping, so all is well!
The wifey is driving up Fri morning...hence the need for a companion pass instead of a wasted car camping pass.
On a sad note, we won't be arriving until 10pm Thurs night...kids have something going on at school next Thursday that they can't miss...grrr! We will def hookup in the campsite tho!

I think so I haven't heard anything from them in awhile so not even sure still who is in the group... Might just be us oldies when it gets down to it hahaha.

Thanks for the list Robert... I will have room in my car as well coming from Temecula (about 45 mins North of San Diego if anyone needs a ride that's in our group I can fit about 2 more with small camping stuff


LET US KNOW PEOPLE!!

[manolo]

I have plenty of room in my car too, possibly for 2-4, depends on how much stuff they bring. I'm thinking about making a thread since I'll be at Ontario airport Thursday morning. I have a friend of a friend coming from Arizona, I could ask him if he doesn't mind picking Jake up.

*2 tents (My own + the giant Aussie one)
*2 EZ-ups
*alcohol
*water

Sarah here. Ryan and I will be driving up from LA in the morning and are planning to park the car wherever we're meeting. PM with more info on meetup please?

We'll be bringing

tent
snacks
water
alcohol
etc...

[billtino]

Last year I we arrived after midnight and got a spot (if looking at the map) in the middle of lot 10. Mind you Lot 5 was not available to car campers last year. I suspect you guys will be in lot 5 & since we won't get there till about 10pm this time, I estimate a spot on the map where the number '"8" is in lot 8 (I hope)...

I hope none of you are passed out around Midnight as we should be done setting up by that time & ready to shotgun some beers. I'm thinking of bringing a Bongzilla...who's down???

Very cool!! I would take it if you can Sarah!!

[FelonyFruitFlinger]

Among other things, I will bring:

1 brown sun-blocking tarp, now sans (?) peanut butter.
The Coleman propane grill stove from last year.
LED lantern, should be good at lighting the EZ-up
Various other camping stuff.
Maybe a crappy cruiser bike for getting around (it was a hike to the general store and other vendors last year).

[aphrael]

You're not sure if it's sans peanut butter? That's ... disturbing?

[FelonyFruitFlinger]

Definitely without peanut butter, or whatever it was. Inside joke from last year--I'm not sure when it happened, but something that looked like peanut butter got smeared on several of the tarps.

Hi there,
I have an extra car camping pass that I am trying to sell.
Long story short, I bought two off ebay for a total of 518.
I need to sell one because I am broke and can't take a huge lose.
I want to sell if for 150 or something.

I have all paper work and would be able to meet in indio when the time comes.

I'll be bringing a tent, water, drinks, assorted food/snacks, and a lantern. Maybe an EZ-up.
