I was kicking around the idea of having potable water delivered to the playa. We wouldn't use it for drinking, but I've got a thirsty water misting system that can spray up to 9 gallons of water an hour. I'm looking for around 400 gallons of water, but only if it makes financial sense. I've got the space in our truck to haul at least 300 gallons of water, but I'd rather have it delivered for the extra cost it might be worth it? Anyone know of a delivery service to call, or another theme camp to split the cost with? I'll have early entry, so if the driver needs to make it over the weekend I'll be there.
Tanks a ton

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!

You get yourself some overalls. Git'em all greased n dirty.
Have a camp mate knock out a front tooth for you so you can smoke a cigar and spit at the same time.
Get one of them tool company baseball hats. Be sure it has a salt ring and get it all greasy.
Get your big-assed barrels into a pickup and drive to Bruno's Shell station in Gerlach.
Chat up the old geezer at the pump, you know, talk about the weather, drought, all them rangers that moved in the motel and stuff. After some time ask about what it takes to fill up them there barrels.
He says $100.
You say: "Shit brother, I work for a living. I got $40 on me right now."
You go back and forth and for some sum o money he lets you fill'em up.
You get some cold PBR and you seal the deal.
Works every time.
