O.K., let's try this. Print out this e-mail and then go to the picture. On the right edge about 2/3's of the way up is a white building. This building is on the entrance road. Just above this building you see the edge of a small lake. Turn right as you pass this building to get to the camping area. There is a small gravel lane that looks like the hook in a question mark. The pavilion and camping area are next to the "hook" and lakeside. Motor homes will park on the dark part of the "question mark" just before it turns to gravel. Park single file so you leave one lane open to the camping area. Just below the "question mark" you see another white building and ramp area. From there to the left is a taxiway to the main ramp. On the bottom right corner of the main ramp is the terminal. KR activity will take place from the terminal, down the taxiway to the hangar. Spam cans can park on the south end of the main ramp near the terminal. All KR's and other "special interest" aircraft can park in fornt of the terminal and down in front of the large hangar. Let's keep the "static" KR's, etc. closest to the hangar and active KR's by the terminal. This should avoid KR's / aircraft from having to taxi through the crowd. As the status changes you can change your parking area from the ramp to the hangar area. Entrance to all activities will be through the main terminal where the registration, forums, photo albums, etc. will be located. As for cooking a steak the firepits are on standpipes mounted in cement. They have a large bar type adjustable grate that would hold a steak and/or probably burgers but I'm sure you've seen public use grills / firepits so you be the judge on whether or not you want to eat off one. Some of the campers may be bringing their own grills or whatever so you guys get together on that. I'm not sure when you might want to cook that steak as we have a noon buffet on Saturday and the banquet meal Saturday evening. But hey, it's your story so you tell it any way you want! :-) I intend to have firewood there for a campfire , either in one of the firepits or on the gravel drive just 20 feet or so from the pavilion. IT'S GETTING CLOSE NOW !!!! YEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAA....... Larry Flesner
