Where's our stuff from last year?
"All the stuff, including the bikes is in a storage space NEAR Reno...actually Carson city (about 30 min outside Reno). Everything is neatly on one clearly marked side of the storage space (which you can drive right up to). We'll give you the address and the combo before you go..."
Clue #1 (Danny's first clue to the Stash Of The Gods) and Clue #2 (Lara's Directions) follow.....

Stuff to get/take
1. How many lengths of 8 ft PVC precisely? and what gauge? (we need 32, 16 with bell-ends)
2. A few extra plastic tubes as some of them looked the worse for wear. Probably easier to get them in Carson City than in SF right before BM though...
3. Crockery, cutlery, mugs
4. MORE WATER SPRAYS!
5. Inflatable furniture is good. And those armchairs with the cup holders!
6. don't put carpet down
7. food - buy snack foods, stuff to cook for one (so we don't have to all eat together), and fruit, and vegetables that can be eaten raw (carrots) maybe a couple of pastas and sauces - more salty stuff. Bagels and spreads!
8. shopping: super-k is at the First McCarran Boulevard junction in reno artcar/bar- happiness
9. the hub needs welding - not actually true.
10. costumes. The village theme this year is "tides".... ideas?
- make a machine that explains how the tides work.
- do live demonstrations, using two plates, two pieces of string, and a fried egg. this is my party trick.
- cheapo inflatable dinghies as furniture. two birds, one stone
- And extra string/rope to tie them down with
- lilos
- whistles. occasionally running to the edge of the playa, and screaming 'get out of the water! get out of the water!'
- those "no heavy petting" posters that they have in public swimming baths
- one of those chairs on stilts
and finally... according to Stef, "this is about the best list I've seen anywhere".
