I'd be awfully suprised if anybody would have trouble getting a site/reser-
vation, this being the first weekend after the New Years celebrations.
But I wouldn't wait any longer to call.

I would think fog/overcast would be your biggest worry.

Well, I'm not Martha and I don't where flannel to work but.... ;)
I presumed that dinner was going to be an on-going affair on a FCFS basis
but I'll wait as long as everyone else wants to, but I like me stew
warm. ;)
We went out yesterday and bought some gloves, thinsulate undergarments,
film. A couple of pies for dessert (sorry they're not homemade Martha
but I suspect they're quite eatible ;) ) Got the Kalua (sp?) and cream
and decaf coffee to pour it in, beer, potatoes will be bought at fresh as
possible. The fish will be bought on the way down. I hates stinky fish!
Camping gear is always ready to go. Anyone know what the temperature lows
at Pfeiffer will be appoximately?
Oh, and your site should be reserved for you if you mention that your
with the Vanagon list I believe. (I owe Bill Abbott ~$28.00 and a beer)
