I'll be there (as I have every year since about 1975 except for some
time overseas in the USAF) for the whole week. Camping at Camp Scholler
as always (way out West by the West end camp store, usually on about
9th, 10th or 11th Street -- look for the yellow "ParasolAirplanes Group"
flag flying over the campsite as well as a ham radio antenna or two)...

Absolutely. It's not a fashion statement -- it's a survival tool for
those of us who are "thin on top"...
