Default Joe Nall Camping - FlyingGiants Style

Heya Crew,

Nall is just a few months away, and it's time to start planning! I know a PILE of FlyingGiants members are heading to Triple Tree this year, many of you from other countries. The TT grounds are pretty big, and it's easy to get lost in the sea of motorcoaches, tents, and throngs of modelers.

I would like to invite all of ya to come hang out us in a very special location that we affectionately call "Camp Jackass"! Last year we had an absolute hoot, and it's always a great time, and an even better way to meet up with like minded friends from FG and our fellow modelers from around the world.

2 month count down! This is getting exciting!

Best -- Max

When I look at picture one thought keeps running through my head...."I can see my tent from here!!!"

The countdown has began.

This year I fully intend to sleep with my whole body in my tent.

Most nights last year.. by the time I got back to my tent, I never made it all the way in.. before I passed out, or got stuck trying to figure out the zipper.

Nothing like waking up with your head on a pillow, and legs hanging outside.

Giants,

Please count me in for CAMP JACKASS. Last year I did the hotel thing and that was damn boring! The highlight was a seafood restaurant next door to where we stayed that served two year old fish.

Although I don't post much it would be nice to meet some of you FREAKS and share a frothy beverage or two..or three..or four. The term "FREAK" is used in friendly way of course.

I was also wondering...is there a place there where you can shower or do you just really slum it if you don't have an RV to shower in?

Hopefully I can also meet the legendary Biff Sadler and share a cigar as well...I plan to stop at JR's on the way down!

-Brad

***You need to register if you're staying on the grounds correct? I don't remember how I did it last year being in the hotel and all

Yes there is a nice shower facility on site. Make sure and look up the crew. I'm sure that there will be many cold beverages for the afterhours times.

On the camping, I do know that there is a fee of $10 per day. I don't know if you have t be a registered pilot or not. I'm sure that Laura will be able to give you the correct information.

Gents, if you're wondering about facilities, the Triple Tree site has be best around. There are full showers, restrooms, and other accomodations scattered throughout the grounds. All of the folks who put on this event do a bang up job, and the hospitality factor is off the hook.

If you're on the fence about camping, I highly recommend it. The area around the entire lake is absolutely awesome, and IMO, the most beautiful part of the grounds.
