Whoops -- I ought to make sure I get around to posting at least this much before everyone heading up to Pennsic for land-grab hits the road:

I'm not showing up land-grab weekend; I'm still sorting out when, how, and even whether I'm going (but if I fail utterly, I'm going to be rather upset -- I haven't missed a Pennsic since the first one I got to, in the 1980s). I realized that I was not going to be able to get myself ready in time to drive the truck without hurting myself badly enough to make the drive really difficult, nor would I be able to sort out my finances enough in time ... and of course not getting paid to drive the truck makes the money angle even more difficult, but oh well.

Assuming I do get there, I'll be camping with Caer Edgemere (in E15 as usual, as far as I know -- go downhill on Brewer's Road, past Howard's Fenway, and look to the right just before the tree line (across the street from Mountain Confederation)). I'm not sure yet when I'll arrive (being not entirely certain whether I'll show up makes predicting when a bit of a challenge), but I'm hoping to get there sometime during the first week.

Hope to see a bunch of you there. Wish me luck.

van interior, looking backCabela's Backwoods 3-room cabin tent interiorI haven't been keeping up with DW/LJ, but I did just see this one. [livejournal.com profile] anniemal said something a few days ago about helping you get to Pennsic, which is fine with me. I pointed out to her that it would mean a 3rd seat in the van, which will mean a lot less space, plus you would have gear that needs some of that remaining space too. Somehow she thought we'd been going to Pennsic with extra seats, but no, we've packed all the way back from behind the front seats every year – not packed to the ceiling, but not with room for another person. (Baitcon we've done with a 3rd seat, but we were packing for only a weekend, not a week+, and we still didn't have much space left.)

Us taking less stuff ourselves would be a good idea though. (Less to pack, less to load/unload/reload/unload, more space in the tent.) Even so, logistics will not be simple.
  • Schedule? We're not going until Aug 1. (And I don't want to be getting there at dark.)
  • Perrine? Would she still stay at our house?
