Now here's one about what the Airport provides for you. We have sledge hammers, and rebar extractors. Bring your own rope, and rebar if you can. We have some extra rebar, but not enough for everyone. We'll have ladders for checking fuel in high-wing airplanes. We'll have an air pump for tires, an air pump for air mattresses, a battery charger, basic tools, and several A&Ps around to help with advice if you have a mechanical problem. We have an Airport Bar, the Phoenix, with lovely shade, chairs, and bar supplies including an ice chest full of ice. Some booze will be supplied, additional donations welcome. The Port Boom Box will crank out some tunes. We have a propane grill for everyone's use, as well as an extra propane stove. We'll have a message board, so your friends in main camp can tell you where to find them. Gray plans to be back this year with his wonderful showers. Fire pits for your evening pleasure, and for your burnable trash. Customs Agents will have the local newspapers, the What-When-Where, and copies of the City Plan so you can find your way around (it's *not* a map, it's a plan). And I'm sure there is more that I'm not thinking of right now. Oh, yes, the nicest Port-o-Potties on the playa.
