Bookmobile

Will there be a bookmobile this year? If I bring 30-40 novels(thrillers, whodunits) mostly paperbacks, is there a place to make them available? Ooh, ooh, I just thought of Camp B. Bob (Barter Bob). I'll see if he'll be there this year. Thanks for listening. Les Moop

hole installation in black rocks

Howdy, Wet drilling with diamond bits in your Dremel is the way to go. Most of the time Harbor Freight is the place to get them pretty cheaply. Also at gem and mineral shows in the area that lapidary supplies are being sold. Be sure to plug into a socket with a ground fault indicator (GFI) to minimi...

grommets

Harbor Freight has poly clip-like gizmos that pinch onto the tarp wherever you might need extra support, are removable and don't make a hole. I've used them, but haven't given them the BRC stress test yet.

I stayed over til Tuesday, and while I was packing containers and bags of STUFF I never even opened, some folks who had been camped near me , but whom I didn't notice until 75% had left, started playing some upbeat, light-hearted Cajun music.
