only 3 weeks until SWAT
Can't wait!
I haven't heard a word from them other than instructions on how to mail or ship stuff to them. I guess I'll call Jim Bob tomorrow and find out what's up.............. Jerry (in Tucson)
Well, last week went by and I forgot to call JB about my spaces I rented. Just a couple minutes ago, I called him and found out where I'm gonna be located in the Chisholm Hall.
I'm gonna be by myself and probably gonna need some help from any of you that are going. It won't be any heavy lifting, but mostly someone to be in my space if I have to leave for any reason. I won't be able to pay, but there will probably be a lot of stuff left over that will need to be disposed of. If anyone wants to assist, I would love to know that that option is available before I dread leaving Tucson.
I'm not able to start packing until the beginning of SWAT week. Also, my camper shell has been tearing up my bed rails and they look pretty bad. I might have to make this trip without my shell...... Jerry (in Tucson)

I can help you out in between the rotations.
Will masks be required at SWAT? Chuck
So far it's still optional.
Thanks, Guy. I'll look forward to meeting up and anyone else, Texans!.......... Jerry (in ucson)

Only 2 more weeks
I'm not as enthused this time around as I was 2 years ago. It's all because of me being way busier now than I was a couple years ago. I've paid for my space, hotel is reserved and I've got all the cash needed to make the trip. Truck is in good shape other than my camper shell destroying the bed. It's not gonna fall off, but it sure is messing things up. Oh well, it made it 364,000 miles and should make it another 6 thousand before all my travels are done right up to the end of the year.
@guylaizure, are you driving out, or are you flying out? .... Jerry (in Tucson)

Only 2 more days until I fly down.
I wish I could fly in instead of driving.
Just got my lathe loaded into my trailer. Will finish off the day gathering up some wood, and then tomorrow evening about 10PM, hit the road. Should be in El Paso about 3AM. Need to be in Junction, Texas, Thursday at 9AM to pick up some Pecans from Plumley's pecans, the best I've ever had. Then onward to Waco. I think I'm finally getting enthused about going. Up until yesterday, I really wished hadn't booked my space. Being busy up until Friday really took it's toll on this
. The worst part about this trip is I'll be in Texas and won't have the time to collect rock. That's bad for me. .............. Jerry (in Tucson)
What kind of rock you looking for?I wish I could fly in instead of driving.

Jolie, I'm a flintknapper. Good quality Chert/Flint is always desirable. I have about 15-20 places in Texas in Hill Country that I visit when going through, but this time I'm on a mission to make it to Waco without looking for rock. Besides, I'll be loaded with wood and tools that will be just about the limit of what my truck can haul... Hopefully I can sell all of it at the symposium. If not, it goes to Missouri for firewood..... jerry 9in Tucson)
