I got a good laugh out of that one!
And congrats on filling out your travel map. Is that for actually camping, or driving through?

They opened one lane today so people could leave or go for supplies. The storm was pretty bad. It was shaking our 5'er pretty good even with 6 stabilizers on the ground. There was 1-2' of sand on the road in places.
