list:
Kyleen's car
Ally's friend's car
There is an increasing chance of my car being added to this list. That means someone can do me a lot of favors for being packed out or helping pack stuff out. Unless someone has a spare bike rack, space will be limited to one person + their bike and gear. If someone wants to go who needs a ride in, let me know as this will help me make my final decision one way or another.

as I think I told Nick last night..... +1 on planning on throwing in money for the cheap beer hauling mission.
in other news... as part of my dinner plan, I'll be getting tiny bottles of ketchup and mustard at the supermarket, and obviously will have plenty to share. feel free to update your dinner plans accordingly.
my weather checking looks to show that it shouldn't rain on us at all saturday night. confirm?
who's got the balls to just say "fuck it" to a tent and wing it under the stars?
Does forgetting which tent is yours and passing out drunk by the fire count?

passing out near the fire is the worst thing to do.
1. you wont get heckled or prodded only if you're the last one to pass out
2. if you're the last to pass out, being by the fire means the earlies will be waking you up
3. burns in sleeping bags.

looks like we'll hit dewpoint before midnight, so bring something more than a sleeping bag because you will wake up wet rain or no rain

Oh and I hate to be bearer of Iffy Weather News, but .... while Seattle, and Hoodsport, both have totally crystal clear sunny forecasts, the point forecast for the mountains from NWS, shows 30% chance of rain tomorrow night.

I have my geared bike back in working order, though I still lack a trailer, rack or paniers, etc. so another option would be if I could bribe someone with extra hauling capacity to meet me prior to heading to the ferry (Ballard).

Nick Gibson ate too many fish and chips or something and is sick and thus, not attending. Which also means there may be a car spot available for the ride home for the highest bidder.
