I received another email from the "team" who is putting on the celebration out in Nevada today.
A few more days and it's "Road trip" time. I just hope the price of gas stays at where it is. Reports from the west are saying that the "per gallon cost" is about 25 cents higher than here in Wisconsin....ouch.
Oh well.
A few things to do yet to get ready. My road atlas from 2004 needs to be replaced by a newer 2005 model and of course a good compas will be needed to navigate the open roads out west.
Anyone have one of those fancy GPS things I can borrow for a few weeks???
Copy of last email I received, follows:

Dear john,
As promised in our last email, here are the directions to the camp site. From Las Vegas, follow these instructions to the beginning of Groom Lake Road:

Turn right onto Groom Lake Road, and follow it for about 13.6 miles to our marked camp site on the right. Please be sure not to park on the south (left) side of Groom Lake Road.
And please do not park or camp within the marked area around the stage.
The GPS coordinates of our camp site are approximately N37°21.00' W115°38.57'.
Due to the huge interest in our event, some people will have to camp in alternate locations.

(N37°25.931' W115°26.689')- Black Mailbox at Hwy 375 mile marker LN 29.6 (N37°27.432' W115°28.962')- Campfire Hill, north of Groom Lake Road (11.5 miles from Hwy 375 turnoff) (N37°21.03' W115°36.27')- Camp site south of Groom Lake Road (11 miles from Hwy 375 turnoff) (N37°21.20' W115°35.66')
