The trip will be one weekend around Easter, depending on the weather. This year it was Easter weekend. We won't schedule it around one person's likes or dislikes, instead we will try to accomodate as many as possible.

This is primitive camping so whoever comes will need their own gear for sleeping and food and drinks for two days. Or we could all pitch in and run the camp together, cook meals for everybody and so-on.

There is a big clear-water tank on the ranch where we can swim and clean off, if the weather is hot it's great, but when it's cold diving in there is a test of manhood. Toilet facilities are 'your favorite tree'. Tim and I drive our big trucks so we bring the camp water, charcoal, cooking utensils and such. Of course anybody can bring whatever they think they will need.

I strongly suggest you bring the best flashlight or lantern you can get. Walking at night is an amazing way to see wildlife.

The ranch roads are not too bad, passenger cars can get in there if you are careful.

We have about 5 months to set this up.

Gus
