I showed up at about 730 on Thursday, which was a little later than I had intended, due to one of the roads on my yahoo maps directions being washed out. I didn't mind so much though, because that meant that I got to drive way too fast on the detour, which was about 5 miles of dips, bumps, and hairpin turns. It also meant that when I arrived,
pinch and
Gadget were just finished setting up, and able to help me. SCORE. I was settled and into the Utica Club in no time.
After setting up, I made a brief stop by the main fire, to introduce myself. I was relatively unimpressed, so I headed right back to Camp Awesome for a night of things made in a brewery, things made in a lab, and things grown in hippie's basements. Somewhere in there
aragorn97 showed up, and I became aware of the existence, and awesomeness of
Oubliette,
WilliamTrinity,
sativa, and Sativa's man, Arron (is he on the site?) That was pretty great, because it extended the circle of snarkiness from 3 people to 7. The rest of Thursday is a bit of a blur. We got rained on right? I kind of remember Jim and I McGuivering a pretty sweet camping set up. There was singing I think. I am sure I tried to convert at least 100 people to the ways of the Utica Club. I got randomly motivated to cook a huge frickin meal, at like midnight. The next morning I woke up alone in my tent with no clothes on. I think I am safe though, because neither my wang or my ass felt overly violated.
your weekend sounds fantastic already.
