Surprise surprise....

May Crown is just a little more than a month away, and the site is over the 
mountains in Central Or.
It's about 300 miles on the shortest route, and a bit farther on the least 
mountain pass route.

I am going.

The last time we used this site, on Friday it was in the 70's and sunny 
during the day, then very cold and rainy at night, rain all day Saturday, 
Froze overnight, very cold all day on Sunday.

However at the previous crown event this year in March, east of the 
mountains it was in the 70's and sunny all weekend.  The typical weather for 
that week historically is partly cloudy 65 day and 39 night.  Temperature's 
this year on average have been warmer, weather has been drier.

Yes it is an illusion, and we won't know anything about the weather until we 
get there.

so this year I will bring the fire pit, and the heater.  I swear I will 
bring a lot more warm clothes!  Thus being so prepared it'll probably be in 
the 80's.

I will be bringing my shelters, and kitchen.  I am debating on what to have 
for supper on Saturday,

Chili
Stroganof
Stew.

which ever is decided upon will be served in both meat and vegetarian 
styles.

Just need to know who wants to camp in my encampment.
And who wants to eat my stuff.
You could camp with my encampment and cook your own food with my kitchen 
tools.
