Who is going? Can we manage an eplaya meet n greet?

[theCryptofishist]

I'm considering it. I have a friend who's interested as well.

[Elliot]

I'll be there, along with my BRC camp buddy Peter and his family, and several of his buddies from Davis (like we did last year). Peter and I will both participate in the new Pedal Car Figure Eight Race.

[Marscrumbs]

I'd like to but will be out watching the Solar eclipse on Sunday in Nevada.

[trilobyte]

Pandorra and I are planning on going.

[Elliot]

It might make sense to have an ePlaya Meet-n-Greet both Saturday and Sunday. I'll be there both days (actually, from Friday), but it is too early for me to know what sort of "camp" name I can be found at.
I'll be sleeping in my old bus, probably on "RV row" against the fence in the parking lot.

[oscillator]

Cool idea - I know some of you (Hi Elliot), good to get to know some of you other cats.

Here is the business end of Lux Tonalus (BM 2009) hooked up to Charlie Gadeken's "Aperion" (Solid State Tesla coil) @ MF2011.

I might be gifted tix, hoping so....

[nilasnake]

killbuck and i have been wanting to go for years, perhaps THIS will be the year.

[lucky420]

been wanting to go to this but Symbiosis is the same weekend. Since that is at Pyramid Lake this year and so close, I will probably be at that.

Have fun and see you all in August.

I'll probably be going with my sister and brother-in-law, but I don't know if they want to go on Sunday or Saturday. Or if they get it together at all, really.
I'll try to find you, Elliot.

Word is, we'll be in the South Lot, with the other bicycle-related groups and activities. Tentative schedule for Figure 8 races is 11 am, 1 pm, 3 pm, 5 pm and 7 pm on Saturday, and 11, 1, 3 and 5 on Sunday. This is my entry:

[nilasnake]

i guess 'activities' end around 8 pm on saturday. so the RV parking lot is definitely the place to hang out after hours. kilbuck and i have our camper registered too.

The RV lot is hardly scenic, but last year there was some BBQing on the deck of my flatbed trailer.

[Elorrum]

Rats. We're moving that weekend.

[theCryptofishist]

*sulks* But I wanna seeeeeeeeeeee you, Elorrum...

I'm sorta planning on Saturday because that seemed to be it when we were talking about it in Da Bar.

[Elorrum]

I'm working on a clone/hologram to shuffle with an image of a cardboard box back and forth to my car. might be able to pull it off.

[Ugly Dougly]

Saturday afternoon it is! I will look for Elliot!

[oscillator]

I'll ride down Saturday - FLG is there with the Cochlea from Tympani, and Flux has BrollyFlock.

I'll swing by Nila & KK's RV afterwards - listen for the mortar rounds and look for the camo.

L8r,

-Osc

[Elliot]

Just got back. Met up with Marty, Oscillator, Killbuck, Nila, Gaminwench, many others... don't remember much at the moment -- sunburned, tired,... happy.... Conquered the Whiskeydrome. Was awarded blue ribbon for Steamroller. Maybe pictures later.

[Ugly Dougly]

Damnit Bill, I didn't see anybody, except the folks what I drug along.

Great faire, though! Loved it!

[wh..sh]

Damnit Bill, I didn't see anybody, except the folks what I drug along.

the folks you dragged along
or
the folks you drugged (the unwilling ones)?

Barbarian types use archaic verb forms.
Which reminds me, Ugly Dougly is moving out of Sunnyvale
