millings is a fancy word for sawdust, size of millings TBD upon arrival. once scented by coyotes, easily disposed of.

What are millings?

Chipped up tree branches would be my guess.

Shady lane

I've been on the boarder line of "shady" most my life so I wish to reserve a shady spot, slighty elevated with a unobstructed view of the launch pads.

Subject: RE: VIP RV Area

Pets are permitted in the RV park but not the Fiesta park. Usual rules of clean up and always on a leash. The area is covered with millings and there is no shade.

Page and I have our flight reservations for Monday 10/8, as well. If you call them be sure to remind them that you want the weekday discount - it will save you $30 per. I'm glad I knew to ask - thanks, Bob.

I asked to join BobKelly, so hope he is not too particular about the company he keeps.

Millings are ground up anything from a mill...could be mine tailings...sawdust would make an interesting surface fire, 'less all drank enough to keep things damped...what do they mine in ABQ? If ya'll are gonna be so selfish about the beach property, then I'll leave the yacht at the marina.
Still need to know if anyone has(& is willing to bring) a half-barrel(plastic)
to ice down an apparently unwanted(i'll drink it myself) small barrel of Flat Tire...may not be Belgian enough for some, but it has a nice accent.

If we were to be meeting the eastbound caravan in ABQ, where would be a good site to go to to wait...?

Kevin, I can't really believe you would ignore my obvious need for shade on the beach next to the pool and hot tub...after all the fine times we shared at...someplace last year, it was, I think...well, maybe that wasn't you, but it COULD have been...Tracy blames it on drugs, but at my age, they're called medications....anyway, I know you just didn't mention my cabana site so's the other folks wouldn't get upset...we found a peep parent, and you KNOW how picky they can be about environs...

Hey Michael...

I'm going to scout some various possible meeting places around town - I quess a question I have is do we need on for those of you coming from the west, then another one where we all meet up, or should I find just one place for us all to meet at?

Camping world has a huge lot west of town that might be a possibility....I'm sure they would be glad to have us, especially if those who are waiting shop at their store.

Correct Paperwork

I'm not sure why I got the premier site on the view terrace in the shade near the pool with the private cabana and room service.

I must have filled out all the proper paperwork in a timely manner...or...

it might have been the influence of some of my friends.

I love Irony...

ok, i'll bring a Texas sized tub for a small'ish keg (i've seen what you call a keg; i'd work a little harder on keeping the powder dry), and as noted above i had one Delux Beachside w/ View, close to the pool and behind the cafe and upwind of the porta potties, held in reserve, no extra charge.

can you start to see why i'm so highly paid?

and meds are good, so long as you stay on'em... just ask me, i'll tell you...

Oh mighty master greeter/parker,

Is it possible that we exchange our unlevel (only need three sets of the yellow blocks to level), muddy (only at night when the sprinklers start), non-view (except fot he adjacent dumpster), non-shaded (except for the patch under the cactus),well lit (right under a four lamp, 5000 watt, parking lot luminaire) premium location for a small patch of barren wasteland next to the RV VIP site?

Sorry to ask for so much, but, it can't hurt to try. Before you say no, consider the innocent cat.

Time
times,

considering your kat people, have special needs and very sensitive, i'll place you next to ms bam (the 50 clam loan had nothing to do w/ it). any bickering, and i'll cut off room service; and please after Gorman, no skinny dipping in the pool during daylight hours.

please no amateur greeters. you can see this is very tedious work.

lewster,

considering you provided a fix for my running lights w/ the stainless steel screws and rubber washer clearance light kit (no more rust, no more leaky clearance lights), and bailed me out of a failed thermostat in 17 degree daytime temps, your staying very very close to me (notice i didn't bring up the beer part).
