Folks,
I am considering driving my wife's Audi Q5 (crossover) rather than my Tundra. I do not recall the road condition where we meet. Any issues getting her car in there?

The last 1/4 mile will require that you drive slow but you can make it.

I am hoping to have a new BBQ rifle to bring this time. Got it put together today. May have to get a new trigger guard but otherwise, seems OK. I stocked it in extra fancy Claro redwood! I told my wife it was my Valentine's day present from her. She went with it- not. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/medium/65723.jpg)

Folks,

Ed, I've driven my Pilot in there with no issues... and one member has been in there with his older Cadillac... I wouldn't envision an Audi Q 5 being anything to worry about...

Guys (and your gals) - Maddy and I are very much looking forward to the Tonto weekend with you all. Owl has expressed interest in campfire song singing but no others have commented and has not happened at any previous events. If there is true interest by many, we can work toward that - sans guitar, unless one of you is a picker with box.
As suggested by Seafire, I will be bringing some things to give away (shooting related) and maybe some not so related.
I have been taking opportunities to sell quite a few of my rifles at local gun shows and still have some to sell. As one of those who has resisted making these gatherings a marketplace (remember those moments?), I will not bring any to display for sale. But, am willing to bring a specific firearm for you to check out if you truly are interested in it at the price noted. If interested in knowing, just send me a PM.

Almost forgot this - it has been noted that we should try to have a hanging or posted lantern or two located where we gather for the evening. I don't own such a rig. Can anyone bring one - or two?
Thanks. P I have a pair of orange stobe lights that can be pushed up in the air on a pole. Can see them from a long way out when it's dark outside. Arrgghhh !!!!!!!!!! I'm looking everywhere, but I cannot seem to the the strobes. I may have let someone borrow them, never to be returned. Checking with one of my neighbors. Crossing my fingers that I locate them

Hey Dennis - - - "Claro Redwood" you say? What is that - do they sell it at Home Depot? Maddy's greenhouse is built with redwood, but it's sure not claro.
Is that her own rifle Karen is holding? Wow - she looks a lot younger than you.

Talking Stuff from like about 1990 on... and instead of titles, just ones I picked up
having articles I was interested in... pre internet days stuff...
lots of articles by people with famous reputations which are no longer with us..
like probably stuff from Ken Howell, and other writers as such are in there...
