Fair.

Being downstream from Arkansas just sounds nasty. But hey! At least you can shat on NOLA.

The important thing is we get our drinking water from an aquifer. But if you want I can bring you a sample of the river water here to drink at petit

What the hell is that green stuff in the picture? Did you bring it with you?

What did I do?

I like how Memphis is completely separate from Tennessee in this scenario. It's funny and true!

You did nothing, but had to make a joke of some kind!

Memphis actually has a very problematic sewage plant that floods frequently and just sends untreated waste into the River. I think it has happened 3 years in a row or something crazy like that.

You say problematic system, they say Louisiana and everything works fine

That's our UFO landing zone. No takers yet, but we're hoping that the little green folks come visit us one year.
Or, it might have been someone getting some twists out of the light rope and it made of an odd picture.

I meant the grass, see above camper picture for our usual land conditions. Although I need to check on our clover and sow more next event

LOL! Yeah, it's nice to have some grass. We still put down 5 or 6 straw bales to be on the safe side in case of "you-know-what."

Excellent, No broken bones is always a plus! We will be in the usual turn 4ish camping spot. I'm sure we will be posting more pics as the event gets closer.

doubt that always enjoy meeting new people at the track and having a few drinks the only issue im going to have is park back near the spectator hill concessions and sit on the hill and as you know moving from the back part of the track to the front can be a pain but im pretty sure I know where y'all are at think I saw y'all last year I shuttled to the souvenir area and started walking your way but only made it to the picnic tables under the faris wheel I had only been out the cast 5 days and foot was killing me

I like meeting new people, too, but depending on the day and time of the day, we may not ALL be so hospitable. Some of us tend get extreme body odor further into the race weekend while others tend to get sloppy drunk by the end of the day. I, of course, do none of these things.

And yep, the shuttle heads right past us and we're fairly close to vendor village.

He says that as the last guy he invited to stay has stayed and now the loudmouth giant won't ever leave.

Although I guess technically that's joeb but he doesn't count and takes up little space, but there is the fire hazard of his Mazda

i will have it known, that I am the only one of our group to make a trek across the track to shower during the week. So my BO is under control, plus it is like 20 to 30 degrees cooler at Petit than my house, so i'm not hardly sweating.

My mazda hasn't had a fire in years, plus I'm working on a plan to acquire a 1992 Honda Accord coupe with 30,758 miles on it from my grandma, so you never know what I'll show up in this year!

Great description. Although I like the one I came up with a couple of years ago. I'll see if I can dig that up...

We all know you shower in north GA only to wash that excrement and urine from the mighty Mississipp off of you.

It's the freshest water he's seen in years and it's COLD, although he is a delicate flower and walks over to the support paddock for the heated shower.

We've been over this, we get our drinking, and showering, water from an aquifer. I only wade around in the poop water for work.

And where does the water in the aquifer come from? Melting glaciers?

Maybe, but probably rain water a few millenia ago.
