Midwest Burner here!

topic posted Tue, May 6, 2008 - 12:05 PM by  Kara
Major Tom commanded that I introductify myself, so here goes! I met a ton of you zany DFW's at Interfuse this weekend and was instructed that I must make a trip to Flipside this month. And, since ya'll know how to party, I thought it would be a good idea! I'm going to be coming in to Dallas (because it's about $100 cheaper to fly into Dallas than Austin) on Thursday morning early and will need one of you lovely peeps to help my haul my booty out to the fun-time sunshine. The only thing I can think of is that I will more than likely need to stop for a cooler/food/booze run on the way, but other than that I'm good. Will be flying out Monday night around 9:00 pm also. More than willing to chip in on fuel or whatever needs to happen.

Spanks all!

    Wow! You're more organized than me. I am still trying to figure out how to get there. Are you packing a tent and all such things to fly??? If that's the case, maybe I should fly to Austin or Dallas too. I hate not having a ton of junk, but the drive down is sooooo taxing on me! Well, look me up when you get there! ;D

      I'm not organized, I'm motivated! Mostly, it's the DFW's taking care of me. Ask and ye shall receive! It is so heartwarming. I'm not packing anything but personal items (clothes, costumes, toiletries). Flying into Dallas is about $100 cheaper, but I understand is a long trek to the "Texas Playa".

      Will totally look you up!!

        Nancy (and Kara, though you're already being hooked up, it sounds), if you'd rather travel light and decide not to drive, it's not like we can't find you gear or rides. Obviously, the quicker you figure out your druthers and ask for specific aid, the easier it'll be for us to coordinate and suchlike.

        Ask and ye shall receive, eh?

        Helping-Outingly,

                I'm think I'm staying with eeyore over at lick and suck saloon? That is if I can find my saloon girl costume! I think I need a sleeping bag though (or something like that).

                  Yep, got her covered on the shelter, I can also provide another sleeping bag I believe - I'll have to make sure I have my mummy sleeper. She could probably use a blow up matress of some sort of padding. I'll have a better list of what I can provide her in a few weeks when I'm back home and looking over my complete stock of camping equipment.

                    More specifically on a few weeks is not this weekend, but next weekend the 17th. I am building some type of larger shelter be it a hexayurt, star dome, or yurt.

                        Will pack a twin size blow up mattress. Easy-peasy to roll up and stuff in a bag. Sleeping bag or blanket is a must. D, you saw the list of junk I want in terms of food. Do you think I need a cooler, too? My brain is totally going numb from excitment . . . I can't think of what else I might need. . .

                        Oh, and a question: I'm totally spoiled by the frog bog at Ozark Avalon, what's the shower sitch like at FS?

                          I think we can find another sleeping bag for you and I know I have a few extra blankets for you to use. As long as you have a matress you'll be good.

                          Food, dont' worry about a cooler, I have plenty of those. I'm going home, I'll probably wind up with a few more depending on how motherly my mom feels. Add that to the fact that you'll be at Lick and Suck and you eat meat.

                          Showers - there are open are showers there and there were a few that were a bit more secluded. Strip off and jump in with the rest of the naked people or wear a bathing suit, whatever you want. I think there may be some private showers - I don't remember them last year, but there were some the year before. The water is not hot. It can be very, very, very cold! Feels great in the morning though! =)

                          I'll probably call you next week when I'm shopping to make sure there is no last minute stuff you need and to find out if you need me to pick anything else up that you may not be able to get when you're out with Button.

                          *hugs* and look forward to seeing you there!
