Okie Dokie! Don't wanna confuse the logistics!
Be sure to cover the chair; them snipes can make an awful mess. They love s'mores, BTW.

Not sure if we can build a campfire on site or not. If not; we have a coleman stove I could bring (only fly in that ointment - I have to remember to bring it).
Marshmellos
Graham crackers
Hersy's Bars
Optional - marshmello roasting sticks; which may be available on site.

You might try and put the Coleman with Gary's icon.
What sticks? I use my bare hand. Call me Stumpy.
With all of those OTAs, you think we can do some daytime unfiltered solar pointing? THAT'LL warm them s'mores for ya.
I have a lunchbox heater; we could layer the s'mores and put 'em in to cook (I have PLENTY of aluminum recycleable pans). Might take 20 minutes for each batch, though.

A Webber would work too. Better than a Coleman; almost as good as a fire and safer. Anybody got a nice small webber?

I always have a 2-burner gas stove in my trailer. Adds just the right flavor to a melting marshmallow.

Can we make quesadillas on that Peter? Maybe some Native American fry bread?

My EPs are getting greasy just thinking about it; sounds like star party comfort food.

Yep, a wash station is in the plans right there with the hard pads, power, and Domino's annex.

I had in mind a tub of soapy water between two of the vehicles. Maybe a towel or two...

A hot tub would be really nice. Cigars too.

I'm looking forward to this AAMM, as it may be the last one for me with the 25. I am thinking of selling it and have made it known that folks can look at (and, more importantly, through) it there.
I don't plan on Marathoning -- unless I get that terrestrial filter working... just a couple nights of observing. And eating s'mores.
