I'll check with the admin and see if they can make me an admin of the event to try and see what the issue is.

Thanks for the heads up!

^--- that link works for me. The other posts didn't, had to search for "Skooliepalooza".

Still hoping to attend, would be awesome to meet 'n greet as well as see some of these rigs in person. Plan to sit down and hash out details this weekend. My daily driver won't make it there (and/or back), so may need to rent a car. Flying is an option, but makes it tough to bring camping gear. Still saving for my bus (passed milestone 1, nearing milestone 2), so budgeting could get tricky.

I'll go one day, I guess when I'm retired or so, but it sounds like a cool deal.

I'm shooting to be there on the evening of the 12th! So excited although I haven't gotten as much done as I wanted - but it's all good, bus is always pretty much ready to roll

Been working on my solar panels to help with the boondocking power - got them all mounted and now trying to put together my 24v batt bank.. got 1kw on the roof.

See you all soon!

Almost time!!!

Once people start getting there, if possible - let us know where you are/how to get there, so we can get all the Skoolies in a nice group... granted I'm sure we will stand out from all the other ones out there....

reallly getting excited and can't wait to meet y'all!! Seems like a decent amount of folks will be there!

Talking

Well kids, the scheduling gods have frowned upon me. No chance of me bringing Johnson to Skooliepalooza, BUT, I will be there! I'm likely arriving on the 11 or 12th of Jan. I'll see if I can grab a hotel room in town for a couple of days.

Regardless, you're stuck with me. Hehehe.

1300 miles to go for us, so we'll be there sometime in a week or a week and a half.

I'm excited to get back to the desert!

Question: I know the event seems to have a lot of off leash dogs. We will be choosing a spot a bit away so that we can walk our leashed dogs and let the goat hang out without dealing with any fights. If anyone wants to form a leashed pet section with us, let me know!

Ok that wasn't a question. More of a PSA I reckon. Also, is there a way to form a group PM with everyone who is confirmed going so we can share phone numbers for those of us who travel without internet?
