2015 T.a.Co. Rock Therapy ATTENDANCE POLL

it's a good excuse to get outta the house for a couple night...can't really have a bonfire inside the house and drink beers with a bunch of random while BSing about anything and everything while watching people make repairs on their rigs all night in anticipation for another day of wheeling with many like minded toyota owners

 

and, in my experience, the run on sentences are off the hook!

 

Hopping to be doing a lot less repairing (though ill be ready for it) and a lot more wandering around to other camps (beer in hand) this year, unless of course not enough fire wood is brought down in which case ill be expecting people to wander over to my camp.

 

sometimes commas and other grammatical adjustments are deemed unnecessary when describing pure awesomeness or other instances where the thought process can lead you in a direction best suited for run on sentences or in other cases if you want to just watch the grammatical world burn

 

PURE AWESOMENESS can't get here soon enough!

 

Oh man I just remembered how long those bug bites lasted from last year. Anyone have recommendations on repellent that worked?

 

its more of poor planning on other vacations / trips. i walk in the door from one and then leave for RT

 

As far a repellent I don't think anything works better or worse from what I tried. But this year I bought a batter powered bug zapper ill have at my camp. I know at least one other person bought one as well and if a few others get them I think that will help keep things under control.

Edit: remember I have will the generator welder if people need power out there just pitch on fuel if you're going to need it all day.

 

I was thinking really hard about bring my rctruck, but couldn't figure out how I was going to recharge the LIPO batteries. I might have to throw you some cash for a charge or two. =)

 

i'm giving this shit a try this year...



i heard vanilla extract helps as a deterrent

 

Yeah, definitely want to have some beers and do some BSing. I also usually sleep better in my truck.

 

Plus one sir lmao!

As for the bUgs, i searched google last year about the desert nats, theres a certain kind of spray that is supposed to work. Deet i read works and bullfrog sunscreen?

 

Gneaux More Gnaughty Gnat SPF-50 Sunscreen

This will probably be my answer as I need both in addition to the Stinger cordless bug zapper below.

 

I am thinking about putting this stuff in my wiper fluid reserver for the bugs.

Bugs: Soak some clothing in permethrin prior to leaving. You can get it at husbandry-supply stores. I forget the exact amount to dilute it to, but I wanna say something like 1% or .15% or something.
As for skin, the stuff I've been using works very well for everything I've encountered: Natrapel 8-hour (look for something containing Picaridin at 20% concentration).

RC charging: I may bring something that will work. I've got two chargers, both can operate either AC or 12V battery clips. The connector is going to be the issue. If you're interested, I can post/PM a pic of the connector I have, and you can source a mate to make yourself an adapter. I may very well bring my son's truck...thanks for the idea!

Firewood: This is something I very rarely pack (we're odd: the two things everyone associates with camping we just don't do: fires, and tents), so it's likely I won't this trip. It sounds like there will be more than enough to go around, so I'll either throw a beer or buck at someone with wood, or see if I can have my son invite ourselves over to another fire.

 

I plan on having plenty of wood so if I have a fire you sir are welcome to wander over. It's red base if you're wondering which one will be mine.

 

Gonna be camping at area BFE!

 

Thanks.

Barcelona Red DCLB. Cuz someone in SoCal has to have some color!
