I'm bringing a popup tent trailer which is much like a mini RV with my daughter and possibly a friend of hers..... I'm planning on parking it in RV row....
I just got back from a day trip to Grass Valley. It is really smoky up there. I know it's not that close to Adin, but the point is that smoke seems to be...
That's exactly right Randy. Right now it is completely impossible to predict what's going to happen. It will all depend on the extent to which the fires can...
I just looked at the plumes again, and they have rotated somewhat to the E. This will perhaps have the effect of making Adin a little worse, and leaving...
... That sounds roughly correct, but I haven't made the trip myself, so I don't really know. ... There are some fires NE of Redding, but the smoke plumes in...
Hi all, I'm had a hard time deciding on if I'm going to keep my plans to go to SSP due to the fires in the area. I noticed in the other threads that Adin is...

Does anyone have any spare aluminet they wouldn't mind parting with? I'd like to have 1 or 2 7' x 10' sections, but I will settle for anything I can get. It's...
A small Dolly might be a good idea, especially to get your battery over to the recharging station. The imaging area will be pretty close to the showers. Over...
Bill, BYOG. Star party generators will not be for powering imaging equipment, only for recharging batteries (and running my personal massage chair and giant...
Hi Daniel, I use a small fold up dolly to get my batteries to the charging station. To get and idea of size, take a look at the site layout on the GSSP page....

Hi Vince, We haven't seen any tents that are completely light tight. Books on CD or tape are probably a better bet, unless she's used to reading in very dim,...
