You where there same time as I was. Ya I had wore my tankers jacket out to
there, but once I got parked I took it off and left it in the car. Just had
my white polo shirt with the IAR print design on front and my camera bag and
my cane and a canteen on my hips.
Moving the scope now with the old Mad Max v.1.0 isn't to hard, the rocker
box in on the front seat and the ota and other set up stuff in the trunk
with the ota looking like a big cannon sticking out.
It was when I used the Nitro Express ( Radio Flyer Wagon ) that it was a 2
hour walk pulling it to get up there.
I've notice the guy from FF two times this last summer, looking but not
saying a word to me. :}
Hay, he even changed the old realy BIG FF sign to a trimmer and bit smaller
one. Now if I could just turn off the billboard by the freeway that's in my
LOS, it'd be even better here at home.
